Second Mock Tests Done

Human Factors 88%

How Bizarre !

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Been prepping for the next exams (Human Performance & Communications).

Mock Test Results are in…….

Human Performance = 67.6%
Communications = 67.7%

.1% of a difference !

Both are fails, so more work needed.

I had forgot that it’s my wife’s birthday tomorrow (OUCH!), so tomorrow’s lesson is a no-go. Ringing on thursday/friday mornings to see if they can fit me in. Fingers crossed. Getting withdrawal symptoms.

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 !
