My blog bio says that one of my passions is flying. That is true. I haven't shown it lately, though; my pilot log shows that, until recently, I hadn't flown in almost two years. I'm changing that - as of now.

Two weeks ago, I went flying with my instructor. A brand new plane that I have never flown before called a Piper Arrow (designated PA-28R). It has retractable landing gear (hence the "R" in the designation) and a constant-speed propeller. This adds a bit of complexity to the process of flying the airplane and therefore some extra time with a qualified flight instructor is required before I can be allowed to take to the skies solo in this particular flying machine.

I went flying again tonight in this great aircraft, this time with my instructor and a fine young man from my church (I'll call him "R"). R rode in the back and took some great pics. See below!





Everybody should learn how to fly.
