Great Day For Flying

Hey all my blog readers of Kyle's Free Space what's up??? Today I'm going to fly a plane! not really I will be in a simulator. I have this flight simulator on my computer called FSX Microsoft Flight Simulator X. I take my simulators very seriously I do all these checklists on my plane. I do it to make sure everything is running smoothly and working the way it should be. I fly a 1979 Cessna 172 Skyhawk I always depart out of San Marcos, Texas airport KHYI. Unless I fly somewhere and fly back to San Marcos to return my plane to my hanger. I have over 500 hours of flight time under my belt. I even have a logbook of all the places I have flown to I flew from San Marcos, Texas last night to San Antonio, Texas that took 2 hours real life time.

I flew VFR the entire was IFR was not possible because there was no clouds at the time. IFR is where your flying above the clouds you see nothing below you just clouds. VFR Is where you say you want to fly over Austin, Texas you will be able to see it so that's about 3000ft to 5000ft. I have done many VFR flights and a few IFR flights IFR is not my favorite because you miss a lot of scenery but its a good view if you love the clouds. VFR is amazing you see a bunch of scenery It is amazing to see all the things. I love flying over Dallas Fort Worth at night it is a lot bigger from the sky view the city lights are crazy if you fly North and South the lights are in a big trail. If you would of went West and East the light die quickly.

Well this is going to be it for today I hope you all enjoyed reading about Aviation most people might get board from this others wont but who cares. If you want to learn more about Aviation go on YouTube and check out these 2 channels. MrAviation101 and ShareAviation. Every thing I know about Aviation I learned from MrAviation 101 his name is Josh. Alright This is going to be it one last thing is this Moto I learned from Josh.....Aviation is worth capturing!

Daytona 500

Hey all my blog readers of Kyle's Free Space what's up???. So yesterday I watched the Daytona 500 I watched all 200 laps. I was routing for Kyle Busch he did not win he came in 3rd place. I really was hoping Denny Hamlin would win and he did!. He won a Daytona in his rookie year which is this year 2016. It was a amazing race I saw a few big crashes sadly the one I also was routing for crashed into a wall. I was routing for 3 people only Denny Hamlin won Kyle Busch was 3rd place.

It was really a awesome race I recently just started watching NASCAR about 3 months ago. I was just in time for the Daytona 500. I will be watching the Sprint cup February 28th That will be fun I think their racing at Atlanta Motor Speedway In Georgia. I am excited about that hoping that Kyle Busch will be racing in it. Or at least Denny Hamlin The guy who won the Daytona 500. The Race was cool they had a squadron of F-16's fly over the track.

This will be the last paragraph today. I will be posting photos of the cars from the track and post some really cool photos no I did not go to the race I watched it on TV so all these photos I posted are from Sports Center's website. I don't OWN them The Man who won Number 11 Denny Hamlin was in 5th before he speed up and won the Daytona it was a crazy move but he did it.

Welding

Hey all my blog readers of Kyle's Free Space what's up???. So today I'm going to be blogging about welding in case you don't know what that is I'm not a whole lot interested in writing a book about welding. There are many forms online you can find information. Alright so I'm going to be writing about my welding experience. So my dad Is a pro welder knows everything there is to know about it. I asked him if he could teach me I have had some torch welding experience in the past but that's totally different. For Christmas my dad purchased me a welding helmet I finally got to use it this past Sunday. He put together the welding machine we gathered all our scrap metal and got welding!

He first showed me the important measures of safety of welding because it can lead to serious injuries and possibly death. He told me that I need to protect every inch of my body I wore a nice jacked, some old jeans and shoes of course. I did have my welding helmet and welding gloves on you have to wear a helmet because the sparks from the welding will make you blind or have very bad vision so always have protection. My dad allowed me to attach my GoPro to my helmet so I could have the first person welders view which was incredible. I am also going to explain 3 types of welding alright so I will be making a little list and paragraph below about certain types of welding.

1. There is GMAW welding also known as MIG welding, MIG welding is the most commonly mastered welding. MIG welding is used for industry welding and house use. MIG means (Metal Inert Gas)

2. TIG welding Is the hardest type of welding it takes so much skill to do. It is totally different from MIG welding to TAC welding.  TIG means (Tungsten Inter Gas)

3 Stick Welding is also known as Shielded metal arc (SMAW) is one of the easiest type of welding. I did MIG welding with my dad. It is pretty fun but it is dangerous

What I mean about dangerous is that I burned my self I picked up metal by accident without my gloves on. That was my own mistake but I wont do that again. I have to say welding is not for everyone it is uncomfortable at times. The possessing does kind of move your body in funny ways. Any real welder will have a story about either burning them self of doing something stupid. Well this is going to be it for today so have a good one and Keep Welding.

Cessna 172 Skyhawk N172SP

Hey all my blog readers of Kyle's Free Space what's up???. So today I writing about Aviation again I have always had a interest in aircrafts probably since I was 7. I always loved them to there just so interesting to learn about. My favorite line of aircrafts is the Class A general aviation aircraft just like the Cessna 172 Skyhawk. Don't get my wrong I love the Boeing aircrafts aka the commercial airliners. I am also a fan of the Airbus A380 which is another commercial airliner. I have this game on my laptop called Xplane 10 it is the trail version until I am able to buy the disk. But yes time to explain the tittle ok a Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a general class a aviation aircraft every air craft has a number for example N80991 that means November eight zero nine nine one.

My aircraft number is my game is November 172 SEARA PAPA. The N80991 Is a pilot named Josh aka Mr. Aviation 101 on YouTube. I got my pilot number by buying my plane in Xplane  I did not know how to fly it but now I am familiar with the controls and buttons that make the aircraft function. I learned how to use a Knots meter and Altimeter meter and how to set the flaps and the mixture of the fuel in the aircraft. I always do a preflight check list even know its a game I like to keep it a real simulator of a real life Cessna. I always talk to ATC to see what air traffic has to say. I recommend using ATC there just another eye in the sky for you. I always use my Taxi light, landing light and always use my strobe lights when I'm  rolling on the a active run way.

This is going to be the last paragraph for today this wont be about planes I know for some people its boring. But I love talking about them and photographing them I am hoping to get a picture of a Cessna in the air one day or If I'm lucky I can go to a airport and see one take off and possibly land. I also do other simulators like A commercial truck driver game which I have talked about in the past. I also do Police simulator in the streets of Los Angeles sometimes Nevada County Sheriff Department. I don't know why but I just love simulators there just amazing. Well this is going to be it for today the reason why I have not posted pictures today is because I have posted pictures in the past about things I have talked about in this post. Also forgot to mention I some times do California Highway Patrol in my police simulator. Ok this is it have a good one.
