Solo Check at Plymouth

Got an Email from Eric last night spelling out what I need to show him as a solo check. A departure, up to the "upper air" steep turns, couple of stalls, a PFL and flapless and glide approaches.

Am quite looking forward to it, as I haven't had to demonstrate so much since my skills test 18 months ago. I am certainly keen to have somebody cast an eye over my aviating and make sure I am as safe and skilled as I hope I am, or whether I need to brush up a few things (which is more probably the case).

Am conscious that this is almost like the "hour with an instructor" that I'll have to do in 6 months anyway.

I intend to get as much out of it as I can and having read another thread on here reckon that should start by having him join me for the walk round.

DGG
