Dennis takes his first flight!!!

Dennis met me at the hanger Saturday afternoon to finish up his pre-solo training. We went over some ground school items and spent a couple hours running drills in the simulator in hopes that we would be treated with favorable flying conditions later that day. We picked up some food on our way to Buzzy Airport and waited patiently for the heavy winds to settle enough for flying. Shortly before sunset the winds began to calm and we geared up to fly. As the sun began to disappear over the horizon Dennis pinned the throttle and soon found himself airborne and in command of his own aircraft for the first time. He did great! He even managed to stick the landing! Congratulations Dennis!!!
