I wasn't sure in which forum I should post this, so decided to put it here. Right now I'm few weeks away of completing my PPL(A) and after that proceeding towards IR, CPL, etc. I've been wondering how people do their flight planning and what kind of thoughts goes through their brain while flying.
What I'm trying to figure out is some kind of a perfect working rythm so to manage to get throught check lists, filling flight plan, reading map, changing frequencies and so on. Do you have some kind of methods of evaluating current wind conditions if it appears to differ from forecasts you have? Or easy formulas or equipment to use during flight to calculate glides and evaluations onto next checkpoint? What kind of things perfect pilot considers while flying?
I know this is quite wide and maybe bit difficult question to answer to, but if you have ideas feel free to share.
