Well the good news is that I have started circuit training so now it is in the hands of the Wx gods to deceide how that will progress.

Last Sat was spent doing crosswind takeoffs and landings but only 6 circuits!

Let's see what this weekend holds.

DC, You'll get there sooner than you think. Enjoy it all. Where are you training? Hopefully you'll pop into Morning Star at some stage for a chat. Otherwise, I'll see you in the air, listen out for Alpha Uniform Kilo

:D :D Sounds good Wart ! - Keep us in the picture, great to hear that everyone is advancing. C205 also getting some more time in. I have been away for the last three weeks but managed to get just short of two hours in yesterday and will try tomorrow if all well. Flying during August has not been the greatest up here (except for the ou manne)

(^^) 4 now

You're quite the motivational speaker aren't you. Must make first solos at your airfield much easier, hey dust devil? :wink:
