Life on the Edge
Patrick Malone is a Cessna Skywagon pilot who started his journey 2 years ago to become a bush pilot in Africa. Although circumstance forced him to abandon his dream in Portugal, his 2 year “blog before blogs” is an amazing read.
This latest entry of his just showed up recently. For anyone interested in what the Running of the Bulls is like, Patrick will tell you.

One of my favorite entries in Patrick’s story of flying from the US to Europe is his account of landing on a beach runway in Scotland. You gotta read this:

Thanks for the link. I didn’t know I was doing a “blog”, but I suppose you’re right. My first blog was a story about driving a very old truck to Alaska in 1995. You might like it, too, if you liked the Africa story. It’s at http://www.malone.com/journeys
Good luck with your flying, and congratulations on taming your first complex aircraft!
