Flying Around!

Okay so... My friend Eric Smithenry has recently purchased a plane. (The Blue and White one in the background). And when he told me that he did this I made him promise to take me flying when he took it up for the first time. So a couple Sundays ago I got a call at about noon asking if I was ready to go up in the air. :) I was pumped. Now Eric doesn't have his private pilots liscense yet so I couldn't actually fly in his plane with him but I rode with David Read, and Eric and his instructor were together and then Jon Zumbahlen and David's wife were also up in the air in Jon's plane. So after we got everything ready to go we took off. I was so excited... we headed towards Erics house because some people were standing outside waiting to see us fly over, we then headed towards Newton so I could see my house and then we started doing some tricks. (If that's what you call them lol) first we did a roll... which was very cool. then we did some weird named one were you do a have roll and then go into the backride of a loop. That was really neat, and last but not least we did a full loop that was amazing but my stomach started to churn after that one haha. Overall an awesome experience can't wait to do it again. Now to this picture down below believe it or not that is me in the passenger seat of the closet plane. Davids wife took this picture and it ended up on the front page of a flight newsletter. How cool is that! You can't really see it here but if you go to http://t18.net/Newsletters/Newsletter%20141.pdf you can zoom in and kinda see better! I just thought it was pretty neat!
