Anyone who lives near me can attest that this winter has not been ideal for small airplane flight. It's either been sunny and too cold, or warm and snowy. So I haven't flown since November.
Every two years, a certificated private pilot must obtain a Flight Review from an instructor to make sure that he or she is safe to fly and is keeping current with their knowledge and skills. Also, a Club member must fly at least once in a 90 day period. I've exceeded both of those timeframes. Since the Club now requires a checkout, and the FAA requires a Flight review, I decided to knock both out at the same time. I had a flight review scheduled with a Club CFI for February 5, but it was foggy and I had to postpone. This Saturday the weather looks like it might cooperate. With any luck, I'll be back in the air soon.

Keith, you're alive man!
I extended my time to the first BFR by a year thanks to some WINGS activity but I'm up for one by September unless I go that route again.
This has been a terrible winter for flying - at least for those of us who pretty much only have a chance to do so on the weekends. Hope it works out for you this time.
I had intended to do the BFR in November when the weather was still nice. I'm really regretting my decision to wait until February.
However, things will soon be put right!
Now, if I can talk the club into buying a Cub with skis...
I like the way you think...
