Had a really good day today. My intercepts were good, my approaches were good, and yes, even the elusive hold looked really good. When your instructor says, "if you have a flight like today on your checkride, you have no worries," it just makes you smile. So, the contest is on for tomorrow to see if I can replicate today.
I took my first practice written exam on Friday and got an 85, so a few more rounds with that and I'll be onto the real deal.
Finally, Parker and I took the Mooney to Longview for a checkup today. We averaged around 160 knots GS at 9.9 per hour. Beat that! I flew a practice ILS on the way back home...from the right seat, no less. I think I'm going to like flying the Mooney :).
Another early morning tomorrow, so blue skies for now.

After 4 years and 2,500 hours of flight instructing, I'm still a hopeless romantic about aviation. I originally conceived this blog in 2009 to document the process of becoming a flight instructor. Now it's going to focus on my adventures in doing aviation my way. Hope you enjoy!
