ET's Info-Stew

Today was my first flight as a Private Pilot. I took up Jenny and though the air was smooth, the winds were high and gusty at the ground. She got freaked out during the landings, but I landed them pretty well anyway. I also showed her a steep turn and a power-off stall. She thought a stall was what happened if the engine stopped running. So when she got the sinking feeling in her stomach, she was...surprised.

We just went around the East Bay area, landed at KLVK, then went back. We took 733PV and at first I brought the plane back because the right mag was dropping 300 RPM. When I went back inside Keith told me to let it run rough leaned out for over a minute. That did the trick. Now that I'm confident again, we can start planning a real flight!
