I am pleased to announce that Saboor Qudsi, did in fact, solo the might Cessna 150 today. He commented after the flight that it was "an awesome experience, a day to remember" He also noted that the airplane climbed a lot faster after I got out of the airplane. I've heard that before!

Jimmy Jackman successfully soloed the Mighty Cessna 150 yesterday evening around 6 PM. He did a fine job. He mentioned that the performance of the Cessna vastly improved once all that extra weight was removed !!

Stephanie Recchia - 15 September 2021

PRIVATE PILOT

Stephanie Recchia successfully passed her PRIVATE PILOT check ride today.
She did this in some very challenging crosswind conditions. In fact, Brad gave here a few extra points for completing the check ride in conditions less than ideal. He doesn't do that very often.
Stephanie said passing the check ride lifted a huge weight off her shoulders. I can only imagine!
As her instructor, I'm very proud of what Stephanie accomplished today. She worked exceptionally hard to achieve this goal. I foresee many years of flying ahead for her.
Stephanie, my hats off to you. A job VERY well done.

Congratulations.

Dennis M
