Well, I just got back from my dual cross-country.  We spent 2.5 hours in the air, and what a beating it was.  I am severly overwhelmed.  My ability to track to VORs are good.  But, just being introduced to all this new stuff was overwhelming.

 Our flight took us from Palmer to the Big Lake VOR, and directly to the Talkeetna VOR.  We did three touch and goes in Talkeetna, flew to Wasilla, and did three touch and goes and then returned to Palmer. I was glad to be back.

 Tomorrow I do the same route solo, then I return to Southeast on Sunday.

Today I did my second solo. My landing were much . It was one touchdown per landing;)

Yesterday was practicing S-turns and turns around a point. Then we came back and did touch and goes.

The day before, I had a stage check that went well.

Other than that, not much has been happening. Oh, we did almost a street sweeper today.

I soloed today. Took the plane for three trips around the pattern. I think I was too busy to be nervous. I was having a blast by the third landing. It went by far too fast.

Just more touch and goes. Should be soloing this week,

Here is a Beech Sierra that the school owns, it is a beautiful paint job.
