Unhappy

Ohhh FC which world do you live in?? I have to say that my first student was a female and she is an excellent pilot. I also had a female studetn who went solo in less than 8 hrs and she had 18 hrs of solo time out of 43 when she went for her skill test, a record in our school no one has broken yet.

At the same time I would like to say one thing that I have noticed. I think all the females students I've had were perfectionists. They all wanted greesers all the time and wanted everything done the perfect way, not a bad thing to aim for but could be discouraging some times when you dont get the results. Where as in case of guys sometime EGO plays a big role in getting them through a proble. Just an observation.

My mascot is a bumblebee. Because of its tiny wings and heavy body, aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly. But the bumblebee doesn't know that, so it flies anyway.
