Of course, Mr Weather may disagree !!
Congrats to my main instructor (Steve) who passed his Instrument Rating this week, despite horrendous weather on the day in question !!

And can’t see it getting any less busy over the next couple of weeks.
With a bit of luck, my busy-ness will subside in time for Steve returning from his IR rating. Fingers crossed !

Human Factors 88%
Radiotelephony 86%
Now, just need some good weather and a day with no appointments to get my flying fix and some exams out of the way (hopefully!)

The only day I can fit some flying in this week is tomorrow and the forecast – HEAVY RAIN !!!
No doubt, next week, when I can fly most days, Typhoon Tommy will hit the UK

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.

Great break. If heli lessons were in Rhodes, it would be a lesson a day.
Sadly, it’s British weather that is key. Next lesson booked for Wednesday when I’m hoping to do some exams too. Fingers crossed !
