A Passion For Flying
As far back as I can remember, I have been fascinated by airplanes and flying. My earliest recollection of visiting an airport was when I was a very small child. That sparked the interest but it wasn't until I was about 17 or 18 that I actually got to fly in a plane for the first time. I will never forget it. It was the beginning of my desire to become a flight attendant and to spread my wings!! I still have the desire to pursue that career. Someday I hope to have my dream come true.
For my 50th birthday, a very special friend gave me a private flying lesson as a gift. This is a picture of me taxiing down the runway on my first flight with an instructor. I got to pilot the plane and learned something about what it is like to be at the controls of a Cessna 152. It was AWESOME!!!!
