Sunday August 5th started out as usual at OAK. Low clouds not wanting to clear long after they were forecasted to disappear. But finally all clouds were gone and Cyril was able to hop into the 05D to warm up for solo. After a couple of landings with his instructor, he executed four perfect landings on 28R just before our beloved stadium TFR went into effect.
Congratulations!

Congratulations Clarence Binninger, Alameda Aero Club’s newest instrument rated pilot! Clarence dragged his instructor out of bed at 6am today and together they flew to Lincoln airport where Clarence impressed his examiner with some very nice instrument flying! If you see Clarence around the club give him a pat on the back! Now go punch some holes in the clouds!

On the gloomy afternoon of May 24th, after a couple of practice touch & go’s with his instructor at OAK, Justin was ready for some weight loss and went at it alone in 6605D. As he taxied out traffic at the airport suddenly tripled, but Justin executed four flawless landing on 28L.
Congratulations!
