Lesson 30 - Solo circuits (4)


18 March 2012

VH-TAJ

Moorabbin (YMMB),  Runway 13L

Weather : QNH 1024, 21C, Sunny, SE 11-13kts (19kt gusts) max 10kt crosswind.

I normally fly at 8:30 in the morning, that way I can be home to play with the kids by 10:30.  However today I've got a 3 o'clock lesson so the family decides to drop me off and do some shopping at the DFO across the road. 

We arrive 15 minutes early, so sit at the end of the runway and watch the planes land.  This brings back fond memories of going early to pick up people from the airport in christchurch and sitting at the end of the runway to watch their plane arrive.
