DbyD's Summer O' Fun Begins!
I have officially graduated college:

DEGREE CONFERRED:
Bachelor of Science
PLAN: Aerospace Engineering
DATE CONFERRED: JUNE 13, 2008
OVERALL GPA 2.99
Me with my Parents (I was very much hung over from the night before)
and my last day of work was last Thursday. I am officially free for the summer, which means lots of flying! I do not have a job lined up and don't plan on searching for a while. I have some money saved up so I can just relax and enjoy life for a while.
I flew Thursday, Friday, today and you can bet I will be out tomorrow as well.
Me soaring over Marshall Peak:
Landing at Andy Jackson Airpark (note all the new grass!)
A goal of mine for the summer is to get to H4. To get there I need:
-45 flights
-3 spot landings (should be able to get them somewhere in those 45 flights I need)
-pass written test
I'm getting pretty good at spot landing my Sport2, but Rob requires one of the three be from the opposite pattern than what we normally fly (right hand approach in instead of left.) Of my last 2 attempts I was way long on one and a bit short on the other, next time should be just right Wink
Some other things for the summer:
-Build camera booms/mounts for cool pictured and video (in progress...)
-Make more HG videos (in progress...)
-Play some golf. I took a golf class my last quarter in school because I needed 1 more unit so I would be eligible for work. It kinda got be back into golf. I played last weekend with my friend at Camp Pendleton and it was some pretty good times. A little golf in the AM and flying in the PM sounds like a good day to me.
-I am also contemplating a trip up to Point of the Mountain. I have wanted to fly there since I started flying and I probably wont get a better chance than this summer. Maybe if I can sell my Falcon to pay for the trip....
.::summer statistics::.
Flights - 3 (Since June 26th)
Hours - 3.4
Rounds of Golf Played - 1
