Wednesday

Eesh 6 days since my last post - I'm a bum. Well for a quick recap, I had my first sim on Friday which went decently but was somewhat eye opening by getting a glimpse at all the stuff we're expected to know/memorize in the plane. Lots of stuff! So after that was some computer stuff and off we went to San Antonio to pick up Megan!

We met Megan at the hotel and relaxed in SA for the weekend and had a great time. Got back on Sunday and went right into studying for my Flying Fundamentals test on Monday. Crammed for it and missed 3 again for a 94. It was a weird class in that it was entirely taught on computers and self study with a review the day prior in the classroom. Anyway, that one is over with and we've moved onto "Contact". This involves learning a lot about how to track visually using the ground targets they point out along with how to do some simple VFR navigation, getting to the MOA's and some of the rules involved with the military flying around here. 

I also have a sim almost every day this week (Except Tuesday). The 2 I've had so far this week have gone well and I'm trying my best to get the radio call, checklist procedures and other little things down to the point where I at least look like I've looked at it a bit heh. 

Megans been enjoying herself down here and is actually out hanging with Aarons wife this afternoon and we'll be having some steaks over their place later. 

Contact test is Friday, along with sims both Thurs and Fri where I'll get into the emergency procedures a bit.
