Welcome back, SPC listeners.  I’m glad to be back with you for another experience on my road to becoming a private pilot.  Today you’ll be coming along as I complete my 3rd stage check out of four.  As you know from my previous few episodes, I’d been preparing for this.  As I also have mentioned [...]

Published on August 30, 2009 By Bill Williams

I don’t usually post current events (besides Airventure) on my website since it is more a historical record of my flight training, but today I’m changing that.  While I prepare my video episode from my demo flight in a Remos Light Sport aircraft from Oshkosh, I thought I would post a quick summary of a [...]
