The Weekend is Here!


At last Friday arrived, it seemed to take longer to come this week than last week. Friday, we learned more about the propulsion and environmental systems on the plane and had another review with the instructor.

After we finished our classes, we took the weekly Boldface and Operations limits test. This tests our knowledge of "critical action items (like loosing your engine immediately after takeoff) from the aircraft operating manual that students must memorize perfectly for safety of flight". Once we were released, Matt (my housemate) and I went downtown for happy hour to meet up with the few other friends of mine.

Today is studying for the Systems II test coming up Monday, at 1 some of the class is going to meet up to start learning about the procedures associated with flying around the airport (known as flying the "pattern", since everyone flies the same route for traffic reasons). After that we are going to take Matt's two new jet skis out to the lake (well, new to us, not to the world). After that we are going to get back to studying till maybe 9, then watch the Soloist with some of the guys on my block.

The recap I talked about earlier is still coming... Hopefully tomorrow
