hit the bed.. n went off to sleep..
( watever happened to jet lag..?? i dont kno!!! :)) )
woke up the next day morn.. rode to the drive school.. took my 1st flight with David...
AWESUMMM.. is like an understatement..
it truly is a diff experience to be up in the air.. in a tiny little aircraft.. watchin the world below..seemingly insignificant..
neways.. tat was tat.. just an intro flight.. and a sort of recon of the local geography...
Kennedy space centre is like 10 mins away from my airfield..!

the next day.. i flew with Justin.. and boy o boy.. was tat fun... the guy was cool enough to let me try a lot of stuff on my own.. we tried a few stalls..
( was freakin scary at first.. but after a few.. its fun! )
after tat.. we flew back.. n he said.. y dont u try a take off and a pattern..
n i tried one.. n i must say.. wasnt too bad!

its 31st tday... n ive not been flying for 3 days now..
plannin to w8 till 2nd for Pete to come back.. so tat i can resume my regular flying with him..
till then.. its fround studies.. and clearing my PPL exams..

as for Merritt island.. whoa!!! beau place..wide open spaces.. no hills.. just lots of lakes.. rivers.. n the beach..!
n Dawn is so nice to us.. Lets us rent a vehicle.. and we 5 have literally been out every evening checkin out some new place or the other..
