Friday 26th June
As the title says, after nearly three months of not having the time to do anything else but work, I'm back into it again.
I was booked in for Tues the 23rd but the weather was lousy all day Monday, so I changed Tuesday's lesson to Friday.
Friday's weather wasn't the best either with scattered showers and the promise of it possibly getting worse.
The nav-ex flight plan was from Lynfield to Dalby, then onto Nanango and back to Lynfield.
We got to Dalby by dodging a few showers, and I was happy that I found Dalby without any trouble, considering visibility was not the best and I was also dodging showers. I was also happy with my take-off at Lynfield and my landing at Dalby considering I hadn't done either for just on three months.
On our run to Nanango the weather deteriorated so we did a diversion and headed back to Lynfield via Toowoomba. At Toowoomba I stuffed up the approach on final and had to go around again. My second attempt was without problem, but back home at Lynfield I did the same thing.
I can only assume I was a bit rusty.
Overall this nav-ex, because of the weather, was a good experience.
T/T 24.5 hrs (2.4 solo)
Update: Wednesday the 1st July. I sat for my BAK exam and passed. YAAAHHHOOOOO
