Ben,
 
I wanted to let you know that I did my intro flight yesterday with Ryan
and it was a blast. I have several hundred hours of flight simulator X
flight time which I think prepared me a little as far was being familiar
with the aircraft we flew but the actual experience was unmatched. It
was complete freedom. This was the first time I have been in a small
aircraft and it felt pretty natural to me. I even think Ryan was a
little impressed with my skills. Taxiing was a little difficult as I'm
not use to the rudder controls but after some practice I'm sure that
will improve.

I've been having a great experience so far talking with William and
training/flying with Ryan. I am more than ready to take the next steps
and spend the next year learning everything that I can about flying and
working toward becoming a commercial pilot.
