Tim's First "Cross-Country" Flight As Part of His Private Pilot's License Training

First few pictures are of Tim doing his "pre-flight" checks.

Going over some instructions with the instructor! :-) 

Dad got to go with Tim and Jerry, the instructor.  

They flew to Astoria, OR and then on to Tillamook, OR and then to Hillsboro, OR and back to Chehalis.  (Landed in Tillamook and Hillsboro)

Kudos to Dad, the in-air photographer!

Near Astoria about to cross the Columbia.

                                                   The departure from  Tillamook

The approach into Hillsboro

                                                                    

They really enjoyed flying back home with a beautiful sunset as their view to the west. 

 I think this was definitely one of their highlights!
