Looks like I'll be configuring the Obutto as a Cessna 150... biggrin

So I take it that you are starting your pilots training? Nice little field. I see by the satellite pics that they recently extended your runways. Non-towered; nice way to start. Low usage. Beautiful coast and inlets for scenery. Towered field nearby so you can get used to that. Single runway so you will get crosswind experience from the start.

Please keep us updated with regular posts.

Enjoy it. Wonderful thing.


Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

I couldn't pass up the $180.00 Ground School price ($10.00 per class). I've got five landings under my belt at French Valley Airport in Murrieta CA. We'll see how it goes... Looking forward to living a life long dream. As a kid growing up, I lived under the flight path at MCAS El Toro. I used to watch each F4, A4, A6, and C130 and from time to time Air Force One (Nixon) and think to myself, one day, maybe. Well, tonight is the night!

Hey killdevil! Going to have to get together when the weather gets better for a cook out?

Thank you all for the good luck wishes. Last night we went over aerodynamics. Next week, flight instruments.

And now you won't have any excuses for not 'stopping by' someone's place....being an airman and all.
We will ALL expect a flyby one day.......if you land at the 'MIO' airfield, I'll pay for some gas.
Take you down the AuSable River in my canoe, for a nice fly fishing trip, best river in the country for trout. 4 minutes from the airfield, and 8 minutes from my house.

A "three hour tour"....I'll have you back on the airfield in 3 hours.

Not ALL the gas, of course...but 'some'....lol....

Had to modify a CH Products Throttle Quadrant to more resemble a Cessna...



Flight out of Currituck to Elizabeth City. Short but fun land nav hop.
