2022 Aviation Update
Its that time again where I look back on my prior year’s aviation activities and typically get disappointed that I’m not flying more. I have several months in 2022 where I was flying quite a bit but the last couple of months I was extremely busy with work travel and the weather was really poor […]
2021 Aviation Update
Its that time again where I look back on my prior year’s aviation activities and typically get disappointed that I’m not flying more. As I look back at 2021 though I’m just happy that I had the ability to fly even though I didn’t get the amount of hours I feel I should be getting. […]
2020 Aviation Update
I didn’t do this update timely for 2020 but for the sake of tracking I finally put it together at the end of 2021. I’m not going to add a lot of details other than the data here. Here is a summary of 2020: 2020 Hours: 49.9 Total Hours: 1106.6 2020 Approximate Mileage: 4,840 miles. […]
2019 Aviation Update
I thought I would complete my aviation update on time this year as last year’s wasn’t done until late March. I’m very happy to report that I logged hours in every month of 2019 except for January. The plane was in annual and Michigan weather isn’t conducive to much flying in January anyway. I broke […]
2018 Aviation Update
I’m long overdue for putting out my annual summary of all my prior year’s flights. I’m actually very discouraged that I didn’t fly more than 50 hours in 2018. The past 4 years in a row have only been about half as much as I would consider a sufficient amount of flying to maintain […]
2017 Aviation Update
I’m over a month behind in putting out my annual summary of all my prior year’s flights. As with the past couple of years I did not fly as much as I would have liked to have flown. The past 3 years in a row have only been about half as much as I would […]
2016 Aviation Update
I usually like the annual event where I review my year in aviation and reminisce on the flights that I had. This year there aren’t as many memories and hours as I would have liked. There are a lot of excuses for that. For one, the year started out challenging with still working out issues […]
2015 Aviation Update
I love looking back on all of my flights from the year and summarizing them for everyone to review. I was actually surprised that I flew as much as I did this year when I summed up all of my flights. We had a couple of big trips and really were able to use the […]
AOPA Fly-In – Frederick, MD (KFDK)
It is always a great day to meet-up with a bunch of other aviators and aviation enthusiasts and today was a excellent opportunity to do that. I had planned to attend this event for the last couple of months and was glad to be able to attend. The weather was decent and it looked like […]
Florida Spring Break – April 2015
We have already been home from Spring Break for a month but I wanted to make sure I wrote about our awesome Spring Break in Florida this year. We had such an enjoyable time and it was really hard to come back from. We left Richmond after the kids got out of school on Good […]
