take me to the sky

3:34 pm Ohmygods I am so tired. So today, flew #10! WHEE (: Okay, so actually, things started out quite badly. Like RIGHT from the start. I was supposed to meet my instructor at 1130 at the aircraft, and at 1115, I was going to walk out before I realised that I haven't done some paper work that needs to be done. So rushed into the ops room, and did the paper work without realising the my instructor had already done it for me (wat the crap right).

Then I rushed to the tech log room place, and like checked the fuel, and just grabbed a life jacket and headset, signed for it, and rushed out to the aircraft and like RAN around the plane. and in the process actually forgot to remove the wire that was like earthing the plane (what the hell right), but thankfully, when I saw the guy next to me doing his checks, and I don't recall myself doing that, I had enough time to like get out of the plane, remove it and strap myself in before he came. EEKS, and cause my instructor came late (thankfully) I had enough time to cool down and get my breathing back to normal (hahahahahaha, yesterday's talk).

And we had another rush through checks session, and then we were off. And I really cannot really taxy and call at the same time. But yeah, did that today. And we had to hold at the holding point for quite long cause some flying college plane was coming out and backtracking.

Then, we zoomed onto the runway, and eekss, I had control, and AHHHHH, hahahahahaha! just took off, and again it was mechanical initially (for the first 4 circuits), but now I have a MUCH better idea of what he actually expects of me (wah, if I have to go through this everytime I fly with a new instructor, it's gonna be quite a nightmare), I am starting to get why they say that different instructors have different expectations. I really need to learn how to round out PROPERLY, but I think I'm getting the hang of it! *smiles* Shall work on it, and get my legs to freaking respond when I need them to. OH, and, yunhui, not to self, use left rudder when you cut power!

Then we had to do 2 go arounds. (I think) And then he simulated engine failure after take off, he just cut power, and I was stunned for like 2 seconds which is quite long in a plane I think, and like then I just had to rattle off. Yeah, haven't done the abort take off.

Yeah, i feel much more comfortable flying again. *heaves a huge sigh of relief*

(X Alrights, the exams are next week (so near!), time to start studying! But for now, going to SLEEP.
