ME AND 757CM
SAN DIEGO APT......CAMERA WAS STICKIN OUT THE WONDOW (note to self ....do not open window in flight)
6000 MSL..........NICE WAY TO STEP BACK AND SEE THE BIG PICTURE
ME N HOBSON
ive now completed 18 hrs of flying .............and now am in search of my first solo. Tom says i should have it by monday. But going by the way my landings are going .......i need to get with it. Landings ........i had them good 2 days ago, but for some reason 757CM has not been treating me nice. I am doing everything right in the circuit pattern ....all the way uptil final approach ......im even good till short final...the aircraft is lined up with the runway, airspeed is reading 60, maintaining the glide slope.......engine idle.......carb off.......but the flare ........thats where i goof up. they say that even the best pilots struggle with their landings........i just want to get it right......consistently. I mean i have the theory right ...i just need to focus and practice. Add to that there were a few aerobatic aircrafts practicing manuvers in the same airspace..........and i saw them land. They make it look like childs play, using short approaches, doing 360's while losing altitude and landing in one sweet motion...it was truly inspirational. I have 2 flights scheduled tomorrow......if u see a new entry in my blog.....means i probably got it right.I also have renewed respect for all pilots all over the world......its not easy. Its not only about flying an aircraft..its about navigation, communication, awareness of regulations, aircraft performance and limitations and most important maintaining safety......its multi tasking at its best. Add to that the physical stress of pressure changes and gforces on the body.......no wonder i am exhausted at end of the day. its late now n i plan to get up early to do some cahir flying......wish me luck.

smart looking guy....future pilot...hmm so the value of things wudnt be all that if they wud come that easy! eh!.....Your landings are sure gonna get better.....the first step to master however is "Multi Tasking EFFECTIVELY with Utmost COMPOSURE"...once u get that right.....it'l be a 1001 % awesum focus all the way....n then there's nuthing stopping you......RITE?!?! all the best hottie.....brilliant luck for ur solo.....keep smiling...fly high n safe! god bless!
