Vomit!!!

I finally got to fly for the first time at Fairmont today. 80 degree heat in combination with 18 knot winds made for a very turbulent ride. Just like my first flight, I lost my lunch. Unfortuneatly this time, I did not have a barf bag. I instead had to barf in my Jeppesen Flight Bag. It is currently in the washer in hopes of being returned to its original glory. I only received .8 hours of flight time today. I am going to visit a doctor and possibly get a motion sickness patch to wear while I fly. On the contrary, I did have a nice view of Tygart Lake and the dam there. I got to watch my instructor land in a 20 knot crosswind which, according to him, was one of the worst crosswinds he had ever seen at CKB. Today would not have been a good day for me to try and land.

  1. After much research, I have decided the best remedy is going to be ginger supplements. If that fails, I will have a backup of Peppermint candies. If that fails, I will have a sea band. If that fails, I will have barf bags.
