17th March
Today we did the familarisation session with the Sierra that I thought we were going to do last session. We started off with some stalls, plus some various turns left and right, then set course for Watts Bridge.
On my first landing on "12" at Watts I put it down hard and got a little bounce and a rev from Kev. We were actually on the ground before I expected to be as the Sierra has longer landing gear than the Drifter that I've been flying and this caught me out.
The next two landings were better so Kev said we could head back via Bradfield and do a touch n go short field powered approach on "18" and then home for another short field powered approach.
All in all I had an enjoyable 1.4 dual flight and looking forward to the "nav-ex" next week and seeing more of South east Qld.
