Flight# 13

It was a beautiful day today. We took off from Runway 5 for the practice area around 8:30 am. Practiced several clearing turns, slow flights and power off stalls. The Meclizine HCL 25 mg I have been taking motion sickness is doing wonders. I absolutely have no nausea or any side effects. There is no way I could have endured these maneuvers without this medication. Unfortunately, even though Airforce allows some anti-nausea medication, FAA doesn't allow any of it to act as a pilot in command. Bummer! So, I need to wean off of it before I get to do solo.

We also went past 4,000 ft on this flight. Bill also demonstrated a slip. The falling leaf stall and the slip are a lot of fun. This is the longest flight so far. On the way back to the airport, I got to spend flying some time under the hood.

The Hobbs time of this flight was 1.5 hours. Cumulative Hobbs time: 11.4 hours.
