Frankie's First Flight Lesson

Frankie has officially started Flight Training. He had his first lesson yesterday. He is SO excited! He can't wait until he's a pilot. Thanks to Jim (who is giving him lessons in exchange for guitar lessons) and his grandma (who is paying for all the plane rentals ...$104/hr). They are both making this dream possible. He has to accumulate at least 40 hrs to get his private's license for single engine planes, and then he keeps accumulating hours and training to work his way up to bigger engines and commercial status...He'll have to accumulate hundreds of hours of training. Wow!!!! Well, he had his FIRST HOUR! WooHoo!!! HE SURVIVED!!!! ;)

Yeah for Frankie! My dad use to have his pilot's license and a 7 seater plane. Sadly this was before I was born!
