Flyopplæring under Korona
Det er mye man kan si om 2020, og det er mye jeg neppe hadde trodd på om noen i 2019 fortalte meg at det ville bli slik det ble. For en som liker å reise, og ikke er vant til å tilbringe hele året hjemme, ble det fort mange planer som måtte kanselleres. Og det er nok av de som har hatt det relativt forferdelig.
Men når en dør lukkes, åpnes en annen.

Welcome to limanovember.aero
Welcome to limanovember.aero, my general aviation blog!
I use this space to share my experiences during my PPL training, collect and share interesting aviation stuff, and anything else I think can be useful to others.
Some posts are written in English and some in Norwegian, depending on the content and target audience. I share my personal view and experience, do not mistake any content here as training.
I’m currently working on adding more content, and hope to be able to post my entire PPL training before the end of the summer.

My first flight as a private pilot - ENNO-ENHD
My first flight as a private pilot, bringing LN-HOG back from ENNO to ENHD after service/yearly. Had to take the long way around the coast due to low clouds in the mountains. Cloud along the way also meant I couldn’t go as high as I wanted to.

During the summer of 2020, when everything else got cancelled, I started working towards my life-long dream of obtaining my private pilot license. This is a summary of what I did.

PPL training - Skill test
Getting the skill test done turned out to take a bit longer time than I would like. The weather wasn’t the best, LN-HOG was in for it’s annual check, the airport had really bad opening hours, and I had to switch examiner. I eventually just decided that it wasn’t worth waiting for the perfect oportunity anymore, so I decided to drive down to Sola instead. This meant that I had to use an unfamiliar airplane, and fly from a much larger airport (which I still didn’t know as good as I know Karmøy). But it was time to just get this done now!

PPL training - Preparation for school check
Today is the day. The day I’m (hopefully) going to finish the training for my PPL(A). The plan is to fly down to Sola, doing the preparation for the school check along the way down, and then hopefully complete the school check.

PPL training - Solo navigation 2
It’s unusually cold outside now, but we also got clear skies! So with the longer opening hours today (being a Sunday), this was the perfect day for the second and final solo navigation/cross country flight! This time I had to do a full stop landing on two other airports. In addition to this, I needed 3 hours of solo navigation time. So I spent the day yesterday planning a route from Karmøy to Sola followed by a long sightseeing route from Sola to Flesland.

PPL training - Custom lesson - Crosswind landings
There was a lot of crosswind when I started working on the basic maneuvers, but almost none when I was working on my landings. So I needed more training on crosswind landings.
