Since this blog is about flying, I tend to keep references to my personal life to an absolute minimum. In this case, though, I'll make an exception to give the flight some context. My stepdad is the coach of the football team at the high school I went to years ago, and they made it all the way to the state championship this year. Since it was down in Charlottesville - and you know how much I love Charlottesville (CHO) - I figured I'd try and get a flight in. In order to log some instrument time, I invited my friend Woody (of Dodging Traffic fame) to come along, too.
I think I have finally hit my limit on flight narratives for Charlottesville, so I'll keep it short:
- We flew down. I logged instrument time.
- The game went into triple overtime. My stepdad's team won.
- We flew home. I logged more instrument time.
For being December, it was unseasonably warm, which also made the flight pretty pleasant. Today was a good day.
