This morning we woke up early and went towards downtown Omaha to Flight! Nebraska Group for a 30 min flying lesson to start off Shawnie's pilot license training. He did a great job! He started up the plane, taxied out to the runway, took off(!), flew mostly the entire time, turned a loop around Omaha and came back to LAND the plane!!!
I hate commerical flights and this was only a 4-seater. I was gripping the seat in front of me the whole time! I was the least scared I have been ever on an airplane. The landing was the best I've ever felt, too. I barely moved because Shawn set it down so gently. He made me so proud!
We even got to see and fly right past Omaha's "skyscrapers" including the bigger Woodmen building there. What a fun and atypical Sunday!
Stumble it!
