Cleared for Takeoff...
Well, the adventure has begun. After many years of dreaming about doing so, I've finally started taking flight lessons. Like most people out there, I'm learning on the ubiquitous Cessna 152, which, interstingly enough, in many respects, is similar to my car (a 1984 Mazda Rx-7). Two seats, 105 hp, power just-about-nothing, carbureted engines, lack of a/c, the abilty to run for about a billion miles if taken care of, etc, etc, etc... So far (two lessons), I've been introduced to slow flight (clean and dirty), power off stalls, standard rate, steep, descending, climbing, and slow turns, as well as taking off and landing (although, according to my instructor, I try to land the thing like a jet--just fly it right onto the runway), and ATC communications (probably my strong suit at the moment, though I still need some work).On a completely different note, I got an interesting idea from my friend Jenn, which is to list the first lines to the first 25 songs that randomly come off of my music playlist, and try to get people to guess the songs (Amy, you'll especially like this, though you may be the only one playing). See the comments section for the list.
