	After years of playing in Microsoft Flight Simulator/X-Plane, reading the rec.aviation newsgroups, and staring longingly out the window of Southwest Airlines 737's whenever I go on business trips, I've finally swallowed hard and taken the plunge - my first introductory flight is this Saturday with Skyline Aeronautics out of Spirit of St. Louis Airport (KSUS) in St. Louis, MO. The scheduler said I'm scheduled in a Diamond Katana two-seater, tail number 227RD. Obviously, I'm nervous and excited about my first time up, but what things should I know? Is there really anything, or should I just show up expecting a good, relaxing time? I'm a software engineer, so most things in my business require a lot of upfront planning, reading, and work. Is there anything I should make myself familiar with? Questions I should ask when I get there, etc? Any advice anyone could give would be most appreciated! Regards, Bryan Porter  |
