Flight Lesson # 1 - Rusty Pilot hasn't flown in 17 years (KFRG)

Welcome! This is an introductory video to my channel. I am a rusty private pilot who had not flown in 17 years. I plan to document my return to flying. This video is my first flight back at it.

In this video I purposely will not cut out any video. For those interested in seeing a very rusty pilot return to the cockpit I think showing all of the video is important. In future videos I will cut down on some of the redundant stuff.

I will include some commentary along with the flying as I go along.

Once I am current again I plan to post more videos of my flying adventures and hopefully show how I plan to stay current.

Date: March 23, 2018
Airport: KFRG - Republic Airport in Farmingdale, NY (Long Island)
Aircraft: Cessna Skyhawk N130JA
