Mark Conklin soloed!!! He already has a solo in his log book, but it has been a bit so why not celebrate it again! This morning he greased N752DW on runway 08 and 26 at KRTS. The sun was a bit blinding so Mark switched runways in the empty pattern to make the conditions ideal demonstrating solid ADM. He almost had his private pilot several years ago and as we all know, life happens. He never lost the desire and recently got back into the cockpit and has come a long way in a short amount of time. His favorite question to ask his CFI Chris Buckley is, “do you know what the only thing better than flying is?” His response, “landing!!” And yes Mark, that is correct. Especially a good one where the plane can be used again :) Huge congratulations to Mark and his CFI Chris. Just a few more steps and that certificate is yours!
