My lessons would be on Saturday afternoons at four. We went through a check of the instruments. She explained how to apply full power and pull the yoke back. As we began taxiing towards the runway with her at the controls, she explained how to pull back on the yoke to relieve pressure on the nose wheel. Jill once again grinned a huge grin and climbed over onto my lap. If I ever did decide to get my own plane there was a small airport about 25 minutes north. I think I mumbled something stupid about nice day for a flight lesson, or I have my flight log, or maybe I just started drooling on myself. I took flying lessons. The combination of not having a wife and the freedom of condo living gave me newfound opportunity. The weather was beautiful in New Jersey. Her hand motions and incredible mouth felt so warm and intense. “Don’t you?”
Jill put her clothes back on as we taxied back to the hangar.
