Sorry... I definitely lost the plot the next time up. It was a beautiful sunny day and everyone had decided to get out of bed and "clog-up" our circuit. I'd scared myself so badly losing visual on an aircraft on my solo that I was totally fixated on anything that got even remotely close to us to the point of not keeping a good lookout for anyone else.

It's the one you don't see that gets you, not the one you've spotted.

I flew like a right tosser!!!! - But one thing I've learned is "Move on" and forget about it.

Hasn't happened yet.

HFD was quite tempted on Saturday 'cos I was actually getting it together again but luckily common sense won. Crosswinds again.... gusty at times and a bit of turbulence at two different points in the circuit.

I don't have a great deal of confidence in my ability to deal with certain situations and one of the hardest things I've had to learn is to trust my instructors judgement - That's really hard!!!!

Destiny in MY own hands, but on HIS say so!!!!!!!
