Hi Everyone,
Let me take this opportunity to declare the first Northeast Regional Formation Clinic a complete success! The weather turned out better than forecast and afforded us two full days of perfectly flyable, if not CAVU conditions. So we had a little mist and low clouds, nothing we can't handle.
Everybody that said they were coming, came. We flew all day, both days. All the first-timers got wing time and did great. It really is amazing how much skills improve in just two days. The eastern region may be lightly represented in the Mooney Caravan, but we are coming on strong.
Thanks again to the Northeast Bonanza Group which came through with safety pilots (thanks Woodie, Mike, Andy and Eric) and all the ground-ops support.
I've got nothing but positive feedback on the event (lousy Subway sandwiches not withstanding) and can't wait to do it all again. I wish I could quit my day job.
Oh, and after riding in a Rocket, I think I'm airplane shopping again.
I was so busy that I didn't take much in the way of pics and video - so if you got some good pics/clips, send them my way so I can put together a montage for posting.
Fly safe and keep your calendar open for practice!
See you BEFORE Oshkosh!
And Lacee....
I'm thinking about it.....carefully
