What a day !!! discovering Napa and Sonoma in a Cub

Yesterday, Paul had the great idea to take me for my first flight in a powered plane. Here are just few pictures. It was amazing !!!



Paul brought his Cub from Texas few weeks ago by flying it across the country. More about his adventure at wwww.adventurecub.com.




Thanks a lot Paul.


We took off from a small air field in Napa valley, flew for about 45 minutes in the wine area, flew over the Nascar circuit, and landed in the sonoma Airfield. After a good lunch we flew back and PAul gave me my first flying lesson : It is far from being as easy as it seems :-) But what a blast : We finally did a touch and go and concluded the day with cleaning parts of that fantastic machine. I must say, I got positively impressed how fun this was.












Isn't that cool ?

When it comes to really beautiful sights, this sure beats indoor skydiving!
