Learn To Fly Day

 

Saturday was international learn to Fly Day. I was the assigned photographer for the Barometer. I had a ton of fun Saturday afternoon, The people out at the Corvallis airport are really cool. I really wasn’t expecting to get in a plane and fly around Corvallis when I got there.  

I went with Makenzie Marineau, a friend that works for the Barometer. The 2 of us ended up being some of the only people to show up for the event. 

After waiting around for a bit one of the pilots started up the Cessna and took us both for a quick flight around Corvallis. 

This was my first time to fly over Corvallis. in fact its only the second time that i have ever been in a plane. The only other time i was in a plane was the time I went sky diving 3 years ago.

The experience was great, I had a blast this weekend. Lots of positives this last week.
