Hi everyone,

Well, Mazzy, it sounds like you've reached the mind numbing stage that I was at a few weeks ago, trying to remember everything in the circuit and becoming increasingly frustrated at every bad landing. I flew with a different instructor for one lesson and he told me to stop beating myself up about forgetting things or messing something up. He made it clear that even the most experienced pilots mess-up sometimes (sit and watch those airliners coming in for a few hours and see how many bounce!)and it is better to relax than to worry about the last mistake.

Sunfish, sounds like you're doing well - good luck!

Having had to wait several weeks to get back to flying, I got weathered off yesterday. Fortunately, I had a second lesson booked for Monday - so ... if anyone can blow some good weather in my direction!
