May 16/14 – PPG course finished
So PPG course is finished. The first three and half days the weather was awesome and then it started to rain and got windy. Brent ended up with 17 flights including couple detours into the beanfield. Ha ha. Yes manage 35 flights even though he skipped couple sessions. And David can only make it out for times I think and is now sitting on eight flights in his log. I owe him whole bunch of training sessions and some to Brent as well. Great course, I loved you guys! The only downfall was this stupid chest cold that doesn’t seem to want to go away.
May 14/14 – PPG course Day 5 – Jeff is finished with 32 flights
Great morning that was bit on the wet side but no turbulence at all till 1 pm. Andre still sick.
Video says it all:
Brent had rough landing on last flight in a wierd swirl of no wind – check out those skid marks…
May 13/14 – PPG course day 4
Still sick. Morning – rain – no training. Afternoon everybody flew. David 3 more flights, Jeff 4 more flights, Brent 2 flights. Congrats Brent on you first solo today. We packed up just before major storm blew in and had a beer before bed. Great session!
May 12/14 – PPG course – day 3 pm
Jeff 4 more flights for total of 12. David skipped the session. Brent ground handled but vere very close to first solo. Andre, still sick.

Brent was still ground handling but is improving rapidly.
This morning Jeff added 4 more flights. Dave skipped this morning and Brent has ground handled more and is now ready for the engine.
Off back to the field now. Looks like we may have some rain coming our way later today.
