Picture of the Day: My first airplane

By General Aviation News Staff · February 6, 2024 ·

Dragan Lazic submitted this photo and note: “After a couple of hours at a dealership for Bristell Aircraft, I flew solo from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, to Chicago, in my Bristell NG5. I plan to open my own business helping pilots build flight hours a fast and affordable way. I did that!”

    This was more an ad than a “Picture of the Day”. Fails to stimulate the reader in a good way that your normal P.O.T.D. photos do. Nice story but belongs somewhere else in GA NEWS in my opinion. Anyway, good luck Dragan.

    Congratulations, Dragan, on your new plane and new business! What will it be called? (From a Lancaster, PA, native.)
