My aircraft in for annual, so out to club on Thursday, booked a check out on a 172, with instructor.
Out we went, loosened the concrete block tie downs, three of them , been windy up here recently, full walk round check out, this particular plane just in from annual, second flight actually, got in, master on, start - eh no.........battery flat. Sat there in disbelief.
Tried again, battery getting worse. Thats that then!!!!!
Tied it all up again, back to club house for a cup of tea, and back to office.
Another 2 hours of life wasted again
