my first plane flight, page one
In the Summer of 1997, I took my first plane flight in a little Cessna piloted by my friend Joseph Guy. Joseph had just gotten his Pilot's License, and I was his first victim, err..., passenger as a result of the promise he made to take me for a ride when he finally got his license. It was a hazy day so these pictures aren't of the best quality, but they do record the flight pretty well.
We took a trip to see the rockslide on I-40 at the North Carolina-Tennessee border. It was our second flight of the day. We went for a short flight earlier in the morning to be sure that I would not be sick or scared or anything. I was so excited afterwards that we reserved the plane for the afternoon and went for a second trip. On this trip we brought a camera, which we had forgotten to bring along the first time.
Here is a picture of me with the infamous plane.
And this was our target--the rockslide on I-40 at the North Carolina/Tennessee border.
