At this time of year I take a look back through my spreadsheet log book and see how many hours & types I've flown compared to previous years. How have you done this year?
I flew 74 hours on 7 types. 14 of those were on Gazelle, the rest fixed wing mainly RV-10.
My highest ever year was 2010 with 141 hours, and my lowest 28 hours in 2015 (my son was born!). Average is 79 per year, so this year just a tiny bit below average.
My most memorable flights of the year were:
1. Flying the RV-10 to Friedrichshafen and enjoying the tranquil approach to the airport over the lake after horrendous turbulence at 7000ft over the Rhine valley.
2. Flying the C42 into the mountains at Requena and landing on a deserted mountain fire-fighting strip.
3. Flying the London heli-lanes for the first time.
