Learning to Fly in a Cessna-152

I had the pleasure of receiving flying lessons in Cascais, Portugal. Flying over the Atlantic in a 2-seater is truly an amazing experience.

Because the aircraft is so light, you feel even the lightest gust of wind. The Cessna-152 is an incredible machine for learning - responsive, forgiving, and perfect for understanding the fundamentals of flight.

Flying over the coastline, volume warning

Every moment in the air was a lesson in physics, weather, and the sheer joy of flight. From pre-flight checks to landing, each step required focus and respect for the machine.

Short approach

Huge thanks to my instructor, Pedro, for the flight lessons. His patience, expertise, and passion for aviation made this experience unforgettable.
