Today was an excellent day to take up a first timer. In this case it’s our 2 year old Shih-Tzu who has been around aircraft but never above 3 feet. He would manage to ride along up to 2000′ without so much as a whimper. He really likes being inside the plane. He does not like being shown the outside thru the window however!
The kids came along for this flight which took place taking off runway 09. During climbout Mikey was a bit nervous as evidenced by his turtle like posture. I brought the aircraft around for a touch and go. During the landing rollout Mike expressed his happiness and we continued with the flight heading to the East. We flew to Orleans and then proceeded via Gatineau’s airspace back to the West to land.
During this short flight we all got to see a bit more of the fall color although it is much less vivid today then last week. We also got to just get more exposure to the flight environment. For that I feel successful. Mike was even smiling as we taxied in.
Booked again tomorrow at 8:00. Hoping it will be more of the same.
