One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a flying lesson in California where I taxied out to the runway, took off, and flew the airplane for 30 minutes with no fear whatsoever! I later got the chance to fly a Piper Cherokee, a Lancair ES 4-seat kit airplane, and a Velocity XL 4-seat kit, canard, kit airplane.
