Flight #: 111 [Commercial VFR61]
Aircraft: Robinson R22 Beta II
Aircraft ID: N227SH
Duration, as PIC: 1.2hrs
Cumulative Time: 135.4hrs
Got a call this morning that told me there was an open helicopter - if I wanted it. Hell, yea!
So, did my pre-flight planning (Weight and Balance, Weather Check, Flight Manifest, and filed my flight plan with Seattle Flight Service) and sped out the door. 227SH was sitting there waiting for me with 47.5 hours left before maintenance - so it was in prime condition.
Day was perfect; cold, little bit of wind from the west and clear to 25k ft.
Nothing particular to speak of, other than the fact that I know understand the frustration our CFIs go though listening to us murder communications - particularly in uncontrolled airports. It is pretty bad. I felt, however, pretty damn good since I was noticing the problems.
You just can't beat the feeling of flying.
