Day flight over New York
One aircraft, one city, and the people who have seen it from her right seat.
A daylight run up the Hudson, with the city sharp enough to pick out single buildings. Benjamin flew it in September 2026, aboard N9737W — a 1960s Piper Cherokee the crew call Lady Azzurra. Tracked on the way round, she covered 45.1 nautical miles, climbed to 1,900 feet and touched 103 knots over the ground. Every flight here is a real flight in one real aeroplane, flown from the New York area and always subject to weather.
Private flight in the same aeroplane, a Certified Flight Instructor in the right seat, weather permitting.
Every entry in this logbook is one real flight in one real aeroplane — a 1960s Piper Cherokee the crew call Lady Azzurra. Nominate someone for the next free seat.
