Tropical Storm Fay stalled out and stuck around a whole lot longer than she was supposed to...ruining my plans for flying this week and weekend!

I NOW understand my husband's addiction to fishing...I'm quickly developing an addiction to flying! I've got the itch! I've gotta fly my Kolb!

Yup, floats are cool not just because you can land on water, but, if it starts raining, you just fly upside down! Wink

Floats might help with the flooding and rain, but how does a Kolb fly in 30mph winds? Shocked

My son and I made it in the local newspaper and their website today. You'll only see the story if you click on this link today (Saturday August 23rd):

Hi Cristal,

Congrats on the pilots license. What kind of airplane did you train in ? Im guessing it wasnt the Kolb since most instructors and examiners would have never flown something like a Kolb. Wait out those winds, it would be a shame to ding your Kolb by pushing the limits to early. Thats really neat that your son was your first passenger, how did he like the Kolb ? Is he asking for lessons yet ? Here is the story in the link so that anyone who missed it today can still see it.

" Cristal Waters Earns Pilot License
Cristal Waters, wife of local pastor, the Rev. J. Terrance Waters, of Victory Drive Church of God on Russell Road in Waycross, earned her private pilot certificate?after passing her checkride on?Aug. 5. Making time in her busy schedule, she began taking lessons?in July the previous year?from T.K. Brooks who came from Valdosta to give lessons at the?Waycross-Ware County Airport. Waters works full time as a computer?programmer-analyst for Citigroup in Jacksonville. She studied?the Gleim home study course?and passed her written test with a 98 percent. Her son, Johnathan Waters, a sophomore at Ware Magnet, was her first passenger on Aug. 9. "

Thanks Mike. My local instructor trained me in a Cessna 150. I went to Tennessee to receive training from Jim Kmet for training to fly my Kolb. I was just joking about flying in 30 mph winds...I'm a "perfect weather" flyer. My son really enjoyed the flight. How brave he was to be my first passenger! He was ready to go again right away. He has considered lessons but isn't completely sold yet.
