Hi Mazzy,

2 hours for a check ride!!! My skills test wasn't much longer than that. My last club check ride (post knee surgery kept me grounded for 10 weeks) was about 40 minutes. Slow flight, steep turns, unusual attitudes and a PFL plus a couple of t & G's.

Hope you can keep flying Mazzy, I must admit finances do limit my aerial activities some what, but then thats part of the challenge. If it was as cheap as chips the world and his wife would be up there. God forbid the skys become as crowded as the roads.

Thanks for the tip Whirly my sister has a house near there. Me thinks cheap holiday and cheap(er) flying must be good for the soul.

Chris
