Grant's flying

PPL Study continued

I fronted up at the flight school today. Lawrence had me sit a "trial exam" prior to the Cyber exam (which costs about $150), so he just wanted to make sure I was ready. Bottom line is that I am. I always find multiple choice questions aggravating, and these were no exception. My major knowledge deficit was using the take-off and landing charts for Cessna planes (which I don't think I have ever used), including my lack of understanding of "climb weight limit" which basically is a weight restriction imposed by high pressure altitude. So I scored over 80% with a required pass mark of 70%. So Lawrence has suggested another trial paper and then I'll do the real thing. Study has been chewing up a lot of my spare time, so I'd like to get this out of the way soon.
