Sitting in the Captain’s seat

This morning was the first time I sat in the left seat (aka the Captain’s seat).

Flying locally from Annemasse’s aeroclub, I took off on a DR400-120 registered F-HAFF for a 1-hour lesson with flight instructor H. Barrat above munificent French Alps.

During this first lesson, I learnt how to fly steadily (not an obvious one), increase/ decrease altitude and make low incidence turns. That was truly a dream coming to life.

I am looking forward to my next lesson tomorrow!
