Tip: Staying current at 85

Lee Beery Corby Starlet

Lee Beery from Kelseyville, Calif., sent in this tip: I have a very simple way to stay current that will work for everyone. I have printed on strips of light cardboard “flight tasks” we have all had to do at one time to become licensed pilots.

Because I like aerobatics, I have a few of those maneuvers, but the majority are stalls, power off and power on, slip to landing, short field landing, slow flight with turns, off field landing, go around, the impossible turn, etc.

When I go for a flight I pull several of these “task” strips out of a coffee cup and go have some fun and fly with a purpose.

This is essential for me because I am 85, fly a Corby Starlet taildragger, and there are many eyes watching me.
