RECREATIONAL PILOT CERTIFICATE: Flying Lesson #11 - Soft Field & Short Field Take Off & Landings
In this Lesson, I get my first taste of flying out of a grass strip to practice soft field operations. I also get to practice short field takeoffs and landings.

All up, these kind of exercises require more precision and really improve your flying skills. Lets go give it a shot....
