Our Big Schmidt Adventure: First Passengers!
http://dasflyer.blogspot.com/2010/06/first-passengers.html
Our Big Schmidt Adventure. Chronicling the fantastic, the foibles, and the routine of the Schmidt Family! Tuesday, June 29, 2010. Today was just gorgeous out! Calm winds ( 5 kts), just barely a crosswind, blue skies, unlimited visibility, and a comfortable 75 degrees. What a great late afternoon for flying, and perfect conditions to take Laura on her first flight ever in a small airplane! The first 1.2 hours in the logbook carrying passengers and a private pilot, what a great time! Interesting fellow, no...

Our Big Schmidt Adventure. Chronicling the fantastic, the foibles, and the routine of the Schmidt Family! Thursday, May 27, 2010. Lesson 33 - Long Solo Cross Country. The last of the official requirements by the book is done. Although I didn't hit my goal of getting my checkride passed in May, I did complete all the requirements, alright! I am now transitioning to PTS test preparation, I will be flying with Paul a few more times until he thinks I am ready, and it still might be a bit, but I am so close!

Anyway, I also went back up on September 19 th. I really wanted to do my solo cross country, but I didn't get endorsed by Jack, and he was off this weekend. But I was endorsed to fly solo at Eau. So I decided to go flying and get some more solo confidence building done! Took the wrong plane out of the hangar, I did my preflight. The last few d...

One final check of the game cams before deer camp was quite revealing. We finally caught on camera the monster that Todd downed, including a video! Our first new arrivals, a smaller fork. Finally, Todd's monster. We FINALLY caught this beast on camera once on 10/24, the week before Todd shot him. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Last day of school!

Our Big Schmidt Adventure. Chronicling the fantastic, the foibles, and the routine of the Schmidt Family! Monday, December 29, 2008. Finally, my first legal buck! Although, I was quite lucky to have this big guy visit me, our camp and throughout the state this was a very poor gun-deer harvest. The DNR reported that the state wide deer kill is down 20%, and in the northwest region where we hunt, it was down over 30%. Last year, our group killed 6 deer, this year as a group we only saw. Did he double back?
