First Flight: Terry Latino's Zenith CH 650

Terry Latino's first flight: "I know the landing could have been better, but that was the first time I flew a Zodiac and a cross wind as well. Well, that's all the excuses I have. I am so loving it." http://ning.it/13R6pB8

Some 600 hours later I still have that giddy grin! Congrats Terry.

Congratulations, Terry.  Outstanding job.  There was nothing wrong with that landing in my humble opinion !

Landing looked good to me. Congratulations. and many future good flights

Congratulations! That smile will not wear off.

It looked like a perfectly acceptable landing. Even with 5 hours of transition training in type, my first landing in 701GV was WAY messier.

Very well done, way better than my first one

Terry ,

Great job with many, many more flights to come. I could see your ear-to-ear Zodiac grin

Congratulations Terry on your first flight!  I could see the way you was "crabbing" into the wind on your landing that you  had a pretty good cross wind going there!  You handled it very well for the first flight!!  KUDOS!  Hope you have MANY safe travels in your future with your new bird!  Looking good!  :)
