Mark,
I'm very fortunate on the sickness front,must be all those years of sailing,but I certainly would not whack a steak sandwich down me before flying,I usually have tuna mayo sandwich but I suppose they could be a bit slippery!
Well today I went up with the CFI for 50 mins and went through the things that went wrong on my test.
He said "if you had done that on the test you would have passed",it's a so and so isn't it?
Probably the result of a mixture of nerves and a poor nights sleep.
Might do the re-test next Friday or Saturday if things work out,including the weather.

We have a bit of a strange atmosphere at Old Buck at the moment as a 27 yr old parachutist client at the parachute school decided to throw away his helmet and cut through the 'chute harness on the way down.
A strange way to commit suicide and not very fair on all those who are now involved who should not have been,especially the pilot and school.
Anyway we are all sorry for his parents etc.
