    to all friends in SEATTLE

     
    As a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certified private pilot, I would like to share the beauty, peace, and excitement of the sky with friends who have the same passion and spirit.

    We will fly a 2-seats Cessna 150 or a 4-seats Cessna 172 plane based in Paine Field-Snohomish Co Airport, with an option of Renton Municipal Airport in future.

    Some interesting points around:
    • Bird-eye sight-seeing of Seattle downtown, Bellevue and Lake Washington;
    • Bird-eye view of Boeing Plant, Puget Sound, even your home ^^
    • View around Cascades Mountains, Olympic Mountains, Mt St-Helens, and Mt Rainier;
    • Trip of San Juan Islands;
    • Trip of Stehekin and Lake Chelan on the other side of Cascades;
    • Trip of West coast of Washington and Oregon;
    • Etc.

    What you can do in the sky:
    • Feeling the flying;
    • Experiencing the exceptional view;
    • Taking pictures;
    • Talking properly;
    • Etc.

    By the way, since the sunset is comparably late before November, an one (or two) hours' local flight after working in the weekdays is feasible through October as well.

    What I concern the most is SAFETY, then fun. I believe risks are always there, the key is knowing, avoiding, facing, and managing, no matter you are in a plane or in your car. I do more than one hour's flight preparing and planning on each flight. Weather condition is an important factor leading to GO or not.

    According to the FAA's regulation, you should not pay for the whole trip since I'm not a commercial pilot. However, you may share the rental and gas with all the other passengers and me, which is much less than the price list of a flight company.

    All in all, I'm looking forward to flying with you and sharing the experience of flying. There is no deadline for this activity.Welcome check back, I will keep updating the information and create a seperate activity for each trip soon. ^^

    Anyone interests in flight may write to me about your interest of sight-seeing or visiting. My contact: night.animal@hotmail.com
