The Flight
On May 20,2022, it was the day I got to go flying in a tiny plane.
When I got into the car, I knew there couldn’t be a cancel, but there was always a possibility it could happen. When I got to the airport, I was so pumped. Today was the day!
A few hours later, I got to go in the control tower. After that I had snack. About thirty minutes later, I was in the plane! We flew!
We flew to see the school, Quechee Gorge, the Connecticut River, and Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. We got to see green, glorious green.
I think the best thing was just going on the flight. Did I mention there were about sixty stairs and no elevator in the control tower? The flight time was about 15-20 minutes, and we had TWO pilots, Mr. Freeman and Lokie! Mr. Freeman was the main pilot, and Lokie was the third grader and was a pilot too part of the time. I’ve never seen a third grader as a pilot in a plane before!
