Awesome Flight!

[Norm]

Well we took the two helicoters from Fredericton down to Trenton NS to have there 50hr done. I flew into Moncton dual and another student followed us solo. We switched up in Moncton and I flew solo to Trenton following them. The plan was to do the same on the return to Fred. today.

I showed up at the airport this morning to fly back and to my surprise one helicopter was not finished of it's inspection. So my instructor tells me that I would be flying back to Fred alone !!! :shock: :shock:

This would be my 2nd solo cross country including the one from yesturday. I was pretty darn nervous when I was departing Trenton but heck once I turned on-route it was no problem. I cruised at 1000' the hole way to Moncton fueled up and left for Fred. Watched the sun go down just when I was coming in to land. .

It was so great people just don't know what there missing. I think I did the right thing in the decision to do my training.

 

Thats my story Thanks Dan

Good job Norm!! 1000' feet, sounds pretty low to me. But I did not know the weather. When is your course done?? I might go in in the spring and get my rating on those machines.

Hello fellow pilots,

Just curious, where is the helicopter flight school. I know when i was in Moncton a couple years ago they were talking about having one at the flight club. Is there on in Fredericton? Are they looking for instructors?

Yes the school is in Fredericton. They just hired an instructor this fall. The school is called; Pilot Ventures.
