ET's Info-Stew

I finally went flying again today for the first time in eight months. I did pattern work with an instructor for over an hour and after kicking off some rust I feel confident about flying again. Interestingly the airspeed indicator didn't work, but the instructor had me continue anyway as a learning experience. I really did get to feel the plane more that way. I was well coordinated most of the time, and on the last landing the instructor told me to "feel the ground effect in the elevator". I did and I greased the landing!

I have to get my biannual flight review finished by the end of this month, so I have three weeks to get back into good shape with all the maneuvers and operations. I'll be flying several times over the coming weeks, a welcome return to flight.
