Finally feel a little sick...

So today I did another type of solo flight. Flew with John from ZBB to Langley, then over to the NPA (North Practice Area), which is north of Pitt Meadows Airport (YPK). Its a big area, sorta like a valley, between some mountains, that we're allowed to fly up to 4000', and practice things like steep turns, stalls, etc etc. So we did a few there, then did a Touch n' Go at YPK, then back to ZBB. Dropped John off, and went to do it myself. Funny doing stalls by yourself the first time, because you better recover that plane! Lol, its not so bad, fun however. So I did quite a bit, did some steep turns, etc etc, then did a TnG at YPK (sweet landing might I add), then back to ZBB. I came pretty close (or so it seemed) to a 737 coming into YVR over Langley/Surrey. That was pretty cool.

Anyhoo got home, and for the first time I felt a little sick (nauseous). I think all the stalls, steep turns got to me. Funny, because I've never in my life gotten sick before. Oh well, I guess its just my stomach getting use to it and all. But 2 hours of flying is a killer... I'm off to bed...
