SEPTEMBER 22, 2023
To start our flying day I must stress the most important part of flight planning, ADM, Aeronautical Decision Making. I checked the hangar and had no bulb in my parts cabinet. The ceiling was sitting at 900 feet when I launched, turning to a 270 degree heading as instructed upon entering controlled airspace.
