Yipee lots of flying today!! I went with Robin on a couple of circuit flights - & I made sure I passed on my circuit knowledge .... I’m such a smart little bear!! I then went on a circuit flight with a student – think they were rather nervous which is why Robin suggested that I went with him. And what a good ‘instructor’ I was – I made sure they were safe & also calmed their nerves – I do think I’m getting rather good at this flying lark!! All these flights were in Debs fav aircraft – GBZET ... and I can see why she likes it!
In the afternoon I went flying with Nigel & Sandy in GBENK – we had to take James (of the Matrix fame!) to Southend (my 1st visit!) to collect his aircraft. When we came to return we found we had a flat tyre (oops! Wasn’t me honest – didn’t touch anything) so had to get it repaired first. On the way home we flew IFR for Sandy to practise his IMC ... hmmm that looked a bit more difficult – think I need to study that more!
