This was sent with my phone. Just a quick test that this can be updated from anywhere with a connection.. The air? Maybe...

2nd Flight, Lago di Como
My second flight concentrated first on some taxiing execises on the
tarmac. Went well, and definately better then last time. Again we took
off from runway 19, direction south. At 2000 feet we banked 20 degrees
left and followed towards Lugano city. Over the lake at point E, we
talked to the tower as we were exiting their control area. We levelled
off at 3000ft and started with trimming execises. Went good ad helped in
how to keep the plane level.
Around Lago di Como for a few rounds, then over Como, Chiasso,
Mendrisio, Capolago, right to point E. Wait for jet to land at LSZA,
approach from North to runway 19. 62 Minutes Block time.

November 9th 2004, First Flight on HB-CJV
With Evelyn Mahle as my flight instructor. I took off around 1400 UTC on a Cessna 152, HB-CJV. We took off runway 19, direction south. We crossed into Italy at point W over Ponte Tresa and followed on towards Lago Maggiore, where banking, descent and ascent exercises were performed.
Ascents followed at 60-65kt, full throttle. Descents at 2000rpm, 5 V- (90kt). Level off at 90kt, 2400rpm.
Turns at 20 degrees.
This is the plane I flew, and will be flying for the next few weeks:
Problems:
- taxing
- keeping right speed in acsent
Positive
- Good landing approach

Flying lessons...
Well after quite a bit of thought I have decided to take up flying
lessons, a feat I already wanted to accomplish since quite a while. I
guess it is the best thing I can do while I am here in Lugano.
I was very interested in flying while I was living in the Boston. Tomas
had already started and I guess doing something together would have made
it even cheaper. Unfortunately 911 made me think again about things, as
security and such an issue at the time.
Last night I was browsing through the first chapter (weather),
installing a PC for my landlady and watching 24... the mixture made me
only get to bed around 2am... hehehe...
;p
