when you have a full moon!
A simply stunning flight last night... full moon, clear skies, no wind, unlimited vis... After finishing off some paper work for the type-rating, I took Trevor and 2 of his kids for a Night Scenic in LMA...
I am officially in love with this aircraft, it is just so smooth and a real dream to fly... once you trim it up, it really is hands off flying... and I had forgotten the joys of low-wing aircraft and the extra ground effect making for nice soft landings...
The 180HP engine also makes a lovely, reassuring grumble... :)
Conditions really were perfect, and as I was getting established on long final, Trevor commented he could see the moonlight shadow of the aircraft on the ground!
Hoping to go again tonight if the conditions hold...
This flight: 1.0 PinC
Total Hours: 117.3 (77.5/31.7 Day, 3.9/4.2 Night, 5.1 IFR)
This was an awesome currency check
