Wow, what a crazy 2 months it has been!
On August 1st, I finally got a day that wasn’t rainy, stormy, foggy, IMC, or a hurricane (I live in Nebraska, btw) and had an aircraft that was actually working. After 5 months of bad weather days and maintenance problems, I finally got the DPE in the plane and was able to secure my Private pilot license.
However, since I was extremely late posting about my private, I will fill you in on my instrument training. In a month, I had completed all of my basic Part 141 training and had to close out the last couple of cross-country flights. With a lot of two-a-days, crazy early mornings, and late-night flights, one starting at 8:00 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. with a 9:00 a.m. class the next morning, I got my training done. Now this week on Tuesday, I have my stage 3, then next week I have my EOC, End of Course.
Although I have been busy and sometimes don’t get all the sleep I need, I still wouldn’t have it any other way. In the next month, I am hoping to get my Instrument rating and get on to Commercial right after that.
Thank you all for the support and for being patient with my progress!!
Glad you finally got your flight in! Weather can be crazy sometimes.
Thanks for sharing your journey!
So happy that you put your scholarship to good use. Congratulations!
Wow, that’s quite the effort!! Congratulations, looking forward to hearing about IFR!
