Hello there,

My last 3 soloflights are coming up. In the mean time I've been to Yuma Intl Airport and Blythe Airport during the longer navigation flights. Blythe is a small, uncontrolled airport which was build during WW II.













To give you an idea of the flights we make on the longer navigationflights, I've made a small summary. These longer flights take us about 4hrs to get there and back.



Today I was planned for a 3hr flight. I decided to practise all of my maneuvers again (steep turns, slow flight, lazy eight, eights on pylons, ..), and to do different patterns and approaches (flapless, power off, ..), instead of flying straight ahead all the time.



As for tomorrow, I have my last long navigation. I'll be heading to Needles Airport. Since it is my last navigation, I'll try to describe a normal day at SATC for you in one of the following days.
