Being up in a small plane is such a rush! In the late 1980s, when there was a flying club at Namao, I had a friend who was a flying instructor there. He took me flying over the mountains, it was breathtaking!
I just got done getting my PPL training out of CEZ3 cooking lake this summer. my flight school was the hanger over with all the Diamond 20s and C-172s. Never knew the guys at Pinnacle had a youtuber among them. Crazy Crossover event lol. what days were you there...? see if i was in the air those days too!
I was out just yesterday - It was my first time in a small plane like that and it was a blast, definitely a lot different than being in a large commercial jet. Cheers
That's awesome. I have never done the city tour, but I am familiar with that aircraft. I believe it's GKKP out of Cooking Lake, I actually just took it out for a little flight last weekend.
Cool. I enjoy playing flight sims from time to time. I'm guessing you flew from Villeneuve (CZVL) to Cooking Lake (CEZ3). I've been known to spectate from behind the fence at the latter while listening to the comms on my flight radio. The Cessna is my plane of choice! 👋 Very cool the pilot let you take the yoke.
Yeah this was a lot of fun, I'd always wanted to fly in a small plane like this. Actually we flew out of Cooking Lake, did a loop around the city and came back. Irritating that it was so smoky but a cool experience overall. Cheers
@@strangenorth Cheers! And next time you do one of these flights, if there's room for one more, I'd love to go! Or at least you could wave as you fly over my house! 😂
Being in the air is like being underwater...both are totally different worlds than what most see day to day.
Congrats!!
Very true - it was a lot of fun and I want to try it again sometime!
The 172 is a classic! Got to fly in one several times when I was in Air Cadets.
Also flew in gliders out of Cooking Lake. Cheers mate.
It was a first for me and a lot of fun, definitely a different experience than being in a commercial jet!
A pleasure having you on board!
Thanks again, it was a lot of fun and I'm glad I got to try that out! Cheers

That sounds like a lot of fun, flying over the mountains sounds especially fun!

@@strangenorth It's quite the thrill crawling into that front seat for the first time.
Wow Hawrelak Park has been obliterated!
Yeah it was interesting looking down and seeing that big lake/pond in the park completely drained of water!

Fyi, the radio communications audio might be available on the archives on the liveatc website.
Oh interesting, good to know - cheers!
