Non-flight Lesson

I was grounded today due to weather. The visibility and cloud cover were iffy, and we might have pushed it to go up, but instead we did some ground schooling. It saved me $90 on plane rental, anyway, so that's good. We went over, in writing, the takeoff and landing procedures I've been doing in the plane. So it was mostly review, but it was good to get it all spelled out in order. Now I can practice it, or 'chair-fly' it, so it gets to be habit.

On the next flight (Wednesday, hopefully), we're going over emergency procedures, and on the one after that, we'll start working on takeoffs and landings. Here's hoping for blue skies.
