Onward Toward Solo Flight

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted about my flying. After spits and spurts of flying since my initial taster lesson last year I decided to make it my goal to be in the air every two weeks in 2017. I’ve stuck to that so far and now have 35 take-offs and landings under my belt.

Class II Medical

The week before last I took my CAA Class II medical exam — which proved me to be fit and healthy enough to fly a plane on my own.

The AFE Air Law, Operation Procedures and Communications book. Didn’t think I’d be studying for an exam again so soon after my MSc

This week I have been reading from the excellent AFE Private Pilots Course books in preparation for my Aviation Law and Operational Procedures exams. Once those are compelete and an instructor signs off on my abilities I will be able to fly solo for the first time!

I will of course update the blog when that happens.

    First solo is a great experience. Or, so I hear… mine was a big hot mess! haha But thankfully I survived, went on to finish my private cert and have been enjoying true freedom ever since. Good luck! 🙂
