So far, the month of April 2019 was generally a very good weather flying month for Leading Edge obviously due to the onset of the summer season. As such, today, April 16, 2019, a Tuesday is the last flying day for the week in view of the long Holy Week official holiday break starting tomorrow, Holy Wednesday. Apparently, it is also today that the first member of the 13 strong Batch 2019-02, Student Pilot Ranni Bien Abelarde Bernales, a good looking stratospheric 20 year old Las Piñas City resident and a product of Mapua University, BS Psychology graduate made it as the 1st Soloist this morning.
