Off to a slow start. Spent most of the weekend and all day today at work. Went to Kirby’s Koney for dinner and edited a bit more of the book.

Going to go fly some sim in the morning. Probably partial-panel approaches to some relevant airports. Trying to get work out of the way so I can spend a few evenings studying my hiney off.

    what program do they use for a sim? Flight Simulator from Microsoft?

    I fly 172′s in FS2004

    Do you have a computer at home that has the horse power for Flight Sim? If so that could give just that bit more of practice.

    See the October 5 blog post above. The sim used OnTop software.
