Once I got my license/certificate,,,, it was time to fly to new places!
What follows are my ongoing pilot journeys! Enjoy!!!
Important Note: I know we, pilots, can spout off terminology and jargon that can be confusing. We don't usually do this on purpose - we simply forget, sometimes, that the jargon isn't 'common knowledge'. In an attempt to answer the latter problem, anytime I use terminology or jargon I've set up the jargon/terminology as an underlined hyperlink which you can click which will take you to a page which will explain it. Hope you find it helpful. Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is terminology/jargon that is left unexplained of which you are uncertain - I want to make this a site that everyone can understand and enjoy (non-pilots and pilots, alike).
