take me to the sky

11:17 pm wheeheeheehee, I am one helluva lucky girl. got to fly my number 7 today. but unfortunately, 157 population is decreasing. ): got to the club today to find that derek got phased out today. rawr. I think it's pretty evil, but I guess there's some truth to what daddy said.


ANYWAY, after some trauma over the weekend and all that's been going on in school, seriously didn't think that I would be able to fly well at ALL today, cause time spent on prep and quality of prep was like so not there.


Yup, but as usual, knowing that i'm flying with dewitt always helps (hah, if he EVER finds this, it'd be pretty funny but whatever). So went for flight, and jo and enson are practically LIVING in the club now, lucky people. The 2 of them were really nice and were practising departure and rejoin procedures with me.


Anyway, so wah, today he like totally left me to do my own thing at the beginning, which was uh, weird initially, cause i was just not used to it, and I have never said "skylark 94, yankee, 2pob, request taxy for circuits" before, so that was new too. then did like circuits, and i am quite a disaster I think. told daddy abt it, and he lectured me, but gave me some advice anyway. and then departed for the area. and in my climbs and descends, I made the same freaking mistake of not doing the climbing descending airmanship points again! ):

STALLING. I SUCK AT IT. (which would actually be a good thing), but anyway. Note(s) to self: react faster to the aircraft! ): full power means full power and not whatever half power setting that I always use. Oh oh oh, and sir and simck were practising flying in formation. It was pretty cool, and today he finally did some of the very fun and cool stunts i've been hearing so much. (: The g is really quite different!

Then came in for the landing. Okay, I have learnt that, when u reach nearer and nearer the runway, use the damn rudders. that's whay daddy said. SO, will try it next sortie. HOWEVER, for today's, let's just say I have problems rounding out, and was slithering from one side of the runway to the other, such that when I was going to land, I was going to be in the freaking grass, and he had to like pull me up and put me back on the runway. Such that after that when we went back to the ops room some senior said "sir, you doing stunts just now arh". BLEARGHHHHHH, okay, it was quite funny.

school's tiring. ):
