Helicopter Dreams

A journey from an office to the sky

So this is me
My name is Markus Andersson. I'm a 34 year old dreamer that have realized that life is too short for not fulfilling these dreams. One of my dreams is to learn to maneauver a helicopter so that I can fly whenever and wherever I want. I will here share my thoughts and reflections and hopefully I can inspire you to fulfill your dreams.

Last solo flight - Ready for examination

With a bright blue sky and about 10 knots of wind I made my last solo flight before examination today. I flew Bromma - Bålsta - Västerås - Strängnäs - Bromma during 1.6 hours. Had about 20 minutes of instrument training since I had the sun like a spotlight in my face on my way från Västerås to Strängnäs, good training.

I still haven’t heard anything about the CPL(H) theory course at Flygteoriskolan that will start this spring. I want more information before I decide how to do. Sounds a bit strange to cover about 80-90% of the ATPL(H) theory (usually done in 6 months full time) in 2×2 weeks and home studies.

Good news today was that I might get a date for examination during the coming weeks :-)

Accumulated flight time: 47.6 hours

090114 Flight time: 1.6 hours
