So spring appears to have sprung here. Snow is melting runways are wet wing covers are ripped from the wind. Bachelor pilots are learning how to use sewing machines to fix the said covers.
As a private pilot with a grass tiedown this winter was horrible it was mild but full of ice. I spent more battles with the snow and snow clearing. Mind you I learned to use a 5 ton tractor and the PTO driven snowblower but so far in 2012 I have 0.8 hours and ground practice and couch flying.
This isn't a pure tale of woe, my partner and I have a plan for the aircraft, we plan to add partners and avionics and looked over the paperwork that made no sense and fixed it. I also became a board member at the Ottawa flying club trying to improve flight training and flying in Ottawa in general. Lets see how that plays out.
I will become a commercial pilot in C-FQEO then become instrument rated in it.
