Aviation & Flying
My journey to becoming a licensed Private Pilot and documenting flights across Alberta and beyond.
Training
I began training for my Canadian Private Pilot’s License in October of 2013. I chose to fly with Namao Flying Club near Edmonton, AB. The club provides training and aircraft rentals, plus ground school.
I flew for a while with my training until June of 2014. At that point, work got pretty busy, so I didn’t fly again for another 15 months. My next flight, where I really focused on finishing my training, was September 10th, 2015.
From there, I flew a few days a week on average, until…
Flight Test & License
I flew my test for the Private Pilot’s License on October 30th, 2015.
And I passed.
Since then, I’ve documented many of my flights with photos and videos. Check out my flight log to see some of my adventures in the air.
Aircraft
Most of my flying has been done in Cessna 172s, which are fantastic training aircraft. The club fleet includes several well-maintained 172s that have served me well through training and beyond.
