Hi LFE,

I know I'm over thinking it, I just want to be prepared
I obsess over small details
Don't beat yourself up about it. I know one shouldn't generalise too much, but I've noticed men and women seem to approach things in a slightly different way. I tend to want to have everything, but everything, straight in my mind before I go out there and do anything. I fret if I don't have the details nailed. In general, men seem to be happier, or simply more confident, about jumping in at the deep end, and seeing how things pan out.

This article rang a few bells with me:

Mars teaching Venus: Differences in learning between male and female student pilots

I like to visualise the circuit in my mind - over and over again Speeds, checks, procedures.. I'm sure you do already.

Have fun! Looking forward to hearing you did it
