N291DR 2.6 Flight to Columbia with Melissa

A quick morning jaunt to Columbia (O22) with Melissa! Now that I co-own an airplane, and the marginal cost of each additional hour is really quite reasonable, doing 2.6 hours of flight is a "quick morning jaunt" rather than the entirety of my flying for a whole month!

The trip there and back was uneventful. Melissa got some stick time and did well, for a newbie. The landing at O22 was interesting, with all the winds around the mountains, but I managed a soft 3-point landing. The takeoff at 3,000 feet density altitude was not as zippy as I'm used to, but I still had a pretty healthy climb and it was also pretty uneventful.
