Well, it’s been a while since I’ve written anything, so thought it time I did!
Weather through the winter months hasn’t really been all that productive to flying, so as of today I’m only up to 10hrs in total.
Past few lessons have been flying circuits of the airfield – taxiing, talking to Approach on the radio, taking off, starting a 20degree turn at 500ft, levelling off at 1000ft, turning downwind (and telling Approach I’m doing so) then the turn and reduction of power into final approach before landing…
Not quite there with doing it all myself, still needing occasional prompting, but getting there – fewer reminders each time!
I have my Class 2 medical now, valid for about 5 years.. just need to get my Air Law exam – the first of many! Having some issues remembering distinctions between classes of airspace, but I think I have the hang of the rest of what’s needed for it – so may give that a go next lesson.. eek!
