The first time I got to actually take the controls was in December of '09. I met a Pilot a few months earlier that told me he would take me flying! Well, we got up their and he said, "You wanna try?" I was like... "try... what?"
He said, "Do you want to fly it?" I was like "YEAH!!!"
Anyway, about the picture, we were flying around where I lived so he was doing some steep turns showing us stuff from a new view. One thing that I will always remember about that flight (besides getting to fly
) was seeing this baseball field and the school around it.
I know the pictures not really contest worthy, but I thought it would be better to stick something in than not enter at all!
Anyway, comments very welcome... critiquing also welcome

Awesome shot!
I love doing steep turns in the 150! The first time you try a steep turn it feels like you're really pullin' some g's. Although, I'm sure it couldn't be above 2.5 g's. hahaha. This reminds me of the times I used to train in the 150. Good job!
