Pilot Training: Day 02 – Every beginning is difficult


Weather is very hot, and I am toasted. Second day has passed and I have accumulated 73 minutes of flight time in Utva-75 two seater airplane.

It's a quite sturdy plane but also very sensitive. I am still getting used to flying which is very different to gliders I am used to. And the preflight and inflight procedures seem to be overwhelming at this point. There is so much to learn about the plane exploitation.

My first few flights were simple exercises, circling around the airport and turning with different angles of bank - 30, 45 and 60 degrees.

I am in a group with three more guys, Marko, Milos and Stefan who are young aspiring pilots. They all started before me and already flight solo (Milos had a first solo flight today).

After the classes we gather on the laptops and play flight sims, MS Flight sim, Condor and IL2.
