ce requires me to have 3 hours of dual time before my first flight so last
Sunday I drove 6 hours to Lawrenceburg, Tenn. to get it at-Buzz Air Fligh
t Academy.-Not only did I get checked out in their 601, I had the most fu
n flying that I have ever had!- Up to this point,-all of my time-has

Hi Steve,
If you have not yet done so I highly recommend you get a copy of the FAA
circular AC90-89A. It has a great deal of information about flight
test. I used to to get started testing my Zodiac XL and think it was a
great help.
