Disillusioned with training......

Evening all,

Apologies for the downbeat tone guys/girls but I'm totally pissed off with the training and wondered if anyone else cared to share their experiences of CPL/IR???

I'm trying to see all the frustrating things that go on as character building and a learning curve.....but as the weeks go on and I try to focus my efforts on producing the goods in the air, I find myself devoting more and more time to worrying about FTO politics (something I vowed never to get sucked into from day 1)

1) Having scrimped and saved to pay for the training I find a chunk of the enjoyment being sucked out of it with the stress of dealing with Flight School's.

2) Thing's are slow to progress thanks to poor weather (which is no-one's fault of course, just bloody annoying)

I love the flying side and thankfully have a really good instructor so maybe I should just be thankful for that and get on with it....afterall, I consider myself very lucky to be doing what I'm doing but at the same time can't help but feel like I've got a case of the training blue's. Anyone else get stuck in a rut during training???

Cheers all and have a good evening

FS
