Flying High Again
Mood:
energetic
So I took C-GCOH a Cessna 172 out for a flight today.
Took a tour along the Gatineau river, got fairly low, always a buzz! Did a few steep turns and practiced a precautionary landing, which was a bit tight but managed to make my selected field. Tried putting full rudder just to se what would happen...what fun :) Flying always puts me into a better mood!
My "new" motorcycle
Mood:
irritated
So I bought a 1982 Yamaha 750 a few days ago.
Took a bus to Toronto to pick it up. Drove said bike back to Ottawa. Had a nervous trip out of Toronto, been awhile since I drove a bike so I was a little nervous. Now the bike is sitting in a local shop and looks like I got me a lemon. Not sure how I went from a rideable bike to a piece of scrap?! Looks like the previous owner forgot to mention a repair done on the cylinder head was fucked up! So I'm stuck with a bike that won't pass a safety and a huge repair bill in order to get it back on the road. Not very impressed at this moment. But I'm going flying tomorrow so I'm hoping that will put my spirit back into the positive.
So here is my life on the web

Never had a blog before but must keep up with the times. I'm hoping to share my dull existance with all who pass by. I recently acquired my commercial pilot's license a few weeks ago!! After 2.5 years of trials, travels and travails I'm hoping to land (puny) my first pilot job. WISH ME LUCK
