My first flight. Rusty joined in as a passenger in the 4-seater "Warrior" plane as we flew past Lowell and into Nashua overlooking Boston in the horizon. I was allowed to take-off, climb, fly in a circle and make turns, perform a touch-and-go landing, and land the plane under the supervision of my flight instructor who handled all radio communications with air control.
