Katie Mullins is based at Hartselle-Morgan County Regional Airport, Hartselle, Alabama. My husband completed his private pilot’s license in December 2011, and took me up for a ride as his first passenger, which was only my 2nd time ever being in a small plane. I immediately started asking questions about what the different gauges did and what he was doing. After kindly answering several of m... Read More »

T. Determan flies out of KYKM, McAllister Field, Yakima, Washington. I first learned to fly taildraggers with Gus Pooler. He’d always ask me what the ball was doing… because I never had it centered. After many patient hours of his tutelage, I was ready to fly! Most of my taildragger experience is in Citabrias and Decathlons. My favorite flights are with my Mom, she has such an appreci...

Megan Mickelson is based at 94C, Gilbert Field Airport, Rio, Wisconsin. I was bitten by the flying bug when I was fifteen, thanks to my dad’s pilot-friend, Don Brinkmeier, and ever since have kept my eyes to the sky! I love the thrill of flying a taildragger, in particular my beloved Citabria. I began training in the Citabria and can say it’s been quite the love affair. I’m sure ... Read More »
