Peter's Flight Log
I'm training to be a pilot!
In this channel, I chronicle my journey and share the ups and downs (literally) with you.
I always wanted to fly. I was obsessed with planes and wanted to be both an airline pilot and a fighter pilot.
As I grew older, life redirected me to engineering, and my obsession with planes took second place but never disappeared. I decided that I would not become a pilot but an engineer.
Many years later, I decided it was now or never. I began my flight training in August 2023.
My video logs in this channel cover every detail I encounter as I try to absorb an avalanche of new information before, during, and after every flight.
I invite you to follow my flying adventures by reading my flight logs. I appreciate any comments you leave behind and encourage you to share my logs with anyone you think might be interested in following my journey.
