Aug. 12th, 2010 04:57 pmFlew as the Observer for about 2 1/2 hours yesterday out of Van Nuys. Plane was identical to the one in this icon, Cessna 182.
We were practicing low altitude air search patterns. As in about 500-700 Ft. off the ground at about 20 Knots above stall. It will be some time before I try flying that myself. We actually flew over my own house out and back as we did most of this about 10-20 miles west of the Gorman VOR.
Pilot training is about four years off for non-CAP related reasons. But this will do for now.
