11.3

28.Jan.2008

That’s how many hours it took me to kick my IP (Instructor Pilot) out of the helicopter today! Myself and three others somehow fooled our IPs into letting us solo the TH-67.

What really pisses me off? This is the second time I’ve “soloed” now and I didn’t have a camera with me. The first time was 12 years ago and I had no clue it was even coming. This time around I was told it was supposed to be tomorrow or Wednesday. Someone apparently changed their minds.

The first solo was me, myself and I completely alone. No instructor, no nothing. This time around your stick buddy had to go up with you. I was going to use the camera to get some video but found it impossible to retrieve while flying. Instead, you get to watch my stick buddy solo while I sit in the left seat. Just imagine it’s me, okay?
