I'M BACK BABY!!

Post by niss »

My first time aloft since November 15 2011. I figured the best way to get back into it was a flight in the Tiger Moth C-GSTP, and figured that time was as good as any for a selfie (many apologies SleeveofWizard).

Insurance checkout in FUBC is tomorrow and my medical is Thursday.

Excited to get back into the airplane thing! :D

Awesome. Welcome back. How about a picture of the Tiggy as well? It's one of my favourites.

Hi Niss,
Welcome back. I didn't recognize you the other day when you were getting the Moth flight. I guess the extra fur made a difference.

I got an early start on my winter beard!


I also had my checkout in UBC. Once I get my medical on the 25th, I will be PICing it up like a mothafucka.
