PIcture of the Week

George Patton quotes

"Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory."

"Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men."

"A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week. A pint of sweat, saves a gallon of blood. No poor bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making other bastards die for their country."

"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived."

Landing

Today I had my second flight and it was about landing. The most important part of flying, the only thing is I suck at it. It is really frustrating not being able to do it. There are so many things to do while landing. You have to talk to the tower, adjust the throttle, watch your altitude, watch for other traffic, adjust the rudder, adjust for the cross wind it just gets overwhelming. I'm sure it will just take some practice. Plus it gets really hot since the a/c in the plane is just a vent that pushes the air into the cabin when your not going fast the air doesn't flow very well. It was a very humbling day in flying. I am ready to get back in there and try it again and get it down. Not much else I have some tests coming up so thats a little stressful also, but it comes next to the territory. What'd ya talk, What'd ya talk, What'd ya talk. BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW THE TERRITORY!!
