Fox-Flyline first officer reporting...
I actually had complete control over the aircraft!!
Yesterday, I flew a four person plane!!!!! okay, I may not have taken off, or landed, but once up in the air, I had put on the headphones, grabbed the controls and headed out to Toledo, aproximately 2 hours in the car from Madrid, but 45 min on plane.
Our capitan, Mr. Alejandro Basilio...aka...mi Pedro..... took us up into the blue on a beautiful Sunday morning... Laini also came as offical cinetographer and she was a bit apprehensive at first...but the Capitan reassured us that we were all very safe.
Once up in the air, we travelled quite slow, about 200 kilometers or so....4,000 meters high! Alejandro did this one trick, where he actually climbs up into the air creating an arch with the plane, then quickly decends! This creates everything else in the cockpit that is not attached, to lift fly around....and there is the sense of weighlessness.....like on the moon!....It was amazing...and this is from a girl who really cant't stand rollercoaster rides.... We did it three times...I loved it, but of course I screamed like a mo-fo!
This is just a quick little blog..... so much is going on..... i just signed a lease for

You've always been a good Co-Pilot!
Wow, that looks amazing to be up in that tiny plane making it go! Yes, it is ironic that you hate rollercoasters! I'm glad you had a good time up there!
