I have always been infatuated with helicopters. In flight, a helicopter is an amazing mixture of aerodynamics, physics and... well, magic. This blog acts as a record of my experiences, learning, successes and failures along this adventure. VFR 141 Private Pilot: June 17th, 2008 VFR 61 Commercial Pilot: May 26th, 2009. CFI: February 3th, 2010. Fly Safe.

1st Solo Flight - Pictures
Apparently there is a tradition at HAI where they take a Polaroid of all students completing their 1st Solo flight. They then post the photo in the school up on a large board. There are probably hundreds of these already. Nice tradition.
Well, as you may know, Polaroid stopped making their instant film. Sad, I know. It just so happens that all the film was used up by the day I did my solo. So, I get to be the first digital 1st Solo pic.
