I've just realized that its been three months since I've posted. At least its been a busy three months with a lot of flying. The photo on the left is looking to the south on V210 over the LaVeta pass in southern Colorado. The vertical lines are the result of shooting a photo through a spinning prop with an iPhone.
There have been several other flights in the past few months. Among them are flights to and from Atlanta and Minneapolis as well as several trips throughout Missouri and Kansas. If one thing stands out this past three months it would be the weather. I have not done an instrument approach in three months! I looked longingly out the window at the MVFR conditions today wishing I could break away from what I was doing and go shoot some approaches. I may be flying to KOSH on Thursday with another AMEL pilot and if so, I'm going to turn it into a three hour under the hood training exercise with plenty of holds and approaches.
For those interested in electronic flight bags (EFBs), John Ewing has been doing a series of articles on the subject over at his blog, Aviation Mentor. I'm hoping for an announcement or two out of Oshkosh this week regarding new EFB solutions as my thirteen volumes of Jepp plates are getting pretty heavy. I'm still planning to knock out my commercial certificate (AMEL and ASEL) this year so my flight schedule will only get busier.
