It has been a looooooong time since I went flying with just my copilot. So today I picked up Abby from school and headed to the airport. Most of the flights with the family on board are for long trips, usually on an IFR flight plan, and I am unable to accommodate Abby's requests to fly the plane.
Well not today! Today's mission was to fly VFR to Palatka (28J) and top off for our upcoming Spring Break trip back to Treasure Cay, The Bahamas. Abby flew most of the way there and back. Each way she did a complete 360 degree turn all by herself! She held altitude and heading pretty well. She exclaimed,"This is easy! Now if only I can learn to takeoff and land!" Someday.....
We had a great afternoon together and we all can't wait to get to The Bahamas!
She looks like she's having a great time, Geoff! Daddy-daughter airplane time is awesome.
