6/08/09 Flight With Dad

Dad and I had planned to fly over to Tillamook (TMK), visit the museum, fly up the coast a little, and come back. Unfortunately the clouds did not cooperate with our plans...

Instead, we flew down to Independence (7S5) for lunch at the Starduster Cafe. A nice place, with outdoor seating offering a good view of the ramp and runway, where you can watch planes come and go.

It turned out to be a very nice flight down the valley, at an altitude that rarely exceeded 2000ft due to the clouds, and allowed for great views of the farmland below.

We also few over a few of the areas that I had practiced during training.

Flying and food... Good stuff!
