First Flight with Son - French Valley to John Wayne
July 5, 2014 -- From French Valley Airport (F70) in Murietta, CA to John Wayne Airport (SNA) in Orange County, California -- Here's a video of my first flight with my son, Christopher, who's home for the summer after his first year of college. The plane is an Evektor SportStar. On our first leg (not included), we made a direct flight to French Valley, a little non-towered airport in Murietta, CA, not too far from Lake Elsinore. On the way back, we headed to the ocean and then flew along the coast and over our home town of Laguna Beach before turning toward John Wayne. On the 45 entry into John Wayne, we passed over my son's old high school. We picked up flight following in the air after departing from French Valley. That's optional, but seems like a good thing to have in the crowded airspace over Southern California. Christopher has taken flight lessons, but school has rightfully taken some precedence, so he won't finish up for a while. For what it's worth, enjoy. MUSIC INFO: In hopes that the copyright gods will be OK with it, here's some info re the song I used: Title: "Major Tom" Artist: Shiny Toy Guns. It's a terrific flying song if you don't listen too closely to the words.
