This is a collection of my blog entries and experiences with flying, and learning to fly. Something I had been wanting to do for quite a while.
You can find all the pictures I've taken here, and read below for my experience:

I'll put aside the sad story of what happened at WVFC, but long story short is I had to join Advantage Aviation for now. Plane selection is somewhat lesser, but they have a nicely automated billing and renting system that works day and night.
After getting recurrent, I went to Thunderhill for a track day:
