I PASSED! I didn't have much to accomplish on the 2nd go-round here but sometimes the 2nd chance gives you more butterflies than the 1st because you REALLY don't want to fail twice in a row. This is just a quick episode talking about the flight, what I did in between the first and second check rides and what I plan to do next!

In this episode I talk about how my instrument checkride went. (I FAILED!)
I talk about the oral portion (which I passed), the types of questions I was asked, what helped me to study, the pre-flight portion, the flight portion that I passed and where everything went wrong.
Part 2 will come as soon as my next check ride is scheduled and taken.

Instead of going week-to-week, I decided to talk through all of my instruction in one episode. I talk how it started, what I learned along the way, what was difficult and frustrating, and tools that I found useful along the way!

Everyone has a hard time with landings. I sure did! In this episode I talk about where my difficulty was (multiple places) and how I went about fixing it. I talk about the resources I used to help me think through it all and try to let everyone know that they are not the only ones - we all struggle with bad landings!

CHECKRIDE!! In this lengthier episode I cover what my experience was like at my first ever airplane checkride. I review, in general, what was covered during my oral review (including where I went wrong) and how the flight went.

Next stop - instrument rating!

The week before checkride! In this episode I talk about the final hours leading up to the checkride, what I worked on, what I struggled with, and how, like many others, my checkride got pushed back two weeks!
