WHY BE NORMAL? My job takes me all over the
NAME: Bill Adams
AGE: 52
country for short periods of time. So, my instruction
cannot be normal. I have to take what I can get. In my EVENT: Solo
WHERE: Livermore,
case it turned out to be better than normal.
California (LVK)
By the time I soloed, I had flown six different airplanes and had about half my time in tri-gear and half AIRPLANE: Aeronca Champ
in tailwheel. I have flown high wing and low wing,
tandem and side-by-side, a glass panel and an airplane with no electrical
system that had to be hand-propped (my personal favorite). I just completed
my first solo in a taildragger at a tower-controlled airport-a 1940s-era
Aeronca Champ at Livermore, California. My instructor was Pete Eltgroth,
with Red Sky Aviation. I had just as much fun (or more) as the person soloing in a tri-gear at a nontowered airport.
While all these differences did extend the length of my training a little, so
far, they have also provided a more comprehensive (and more fun) learning experience. And, I am much farther along than if I had waited for more
ideal circumstances.
