No flying yesterday

Weather was dire. Tomorrow looks according to today’s forecast. No more Steve (as the instructor) for 6 weeks as he is doing his instrument rating training down south. Good luck Steve !

Mr Wind is out in force today

Friday, September 25th, 2009

I checked the METAR/TAF at 7am and it looked “Go Go Go”. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be…….Mr Wind is showing his face today.

So, no flying until next week (weather permitting). Need to get stuck into “Human Factors and Pilot Performance” in preparation for the next exam, but it’s not the funnest topic in the world to motivate myself to read.

Come on David !
