Thanks for the newbie's perceptions. I was one of those that always flew in controlled airspace, and the foray off to
the uncontrolled dirt strip was the first time at an uncontrolled airport. It seems we fondly remember the first time in
many of our experiences, good or bad...

YEEEEEEE HA!!!!!!!!!!

This week's flight was more fun than.....well....something that's a lot of fun. The goal of this lesson was to work
more with VOR navigation and (more importantly) fly into my first controlled field. I feel very comfortable with the
navigation part. There are times that I still have to really think about what Kary is asking me, but if I were out on
my own, I'm confident I could find my way.

I'm starting to think I like this flying thing....but that "free" bag of popcorn just set me back $100. Welcome to
General Aviation, Mr. Franks!

It's all good.
