This flight took me from Blairsville Airport (KDZJ) to McCollum Airport (KRYY) in Kennesaw, GA (Cobb County). I talked to Atlanta Center, Atlanta Approach Control and McCollum Tower.
You will see the things that went right and a few that did not. Most notable is I inadvertently deployed my flaps on takeoff after a touch and go. Best I can tell, my hand hit the lever downward as I moved it away after raising the flaps and my attention was turned immediately to my takeoff. I knew within a few seconds after rotation that something was not right. Observing the flaps down I decreased the climb attitude and slowly raised the flaps mindful of my airspeed and proximity to the runway and any obstructions ahead.
Thankfully it all worked out and I learned a valuable lesson from this flight regarding the flaps.
I hope you enjoy the ATC communications and feel free to provide me any feedback.
