after all those spins and stalls his stomach will be all over the place, especially if he's had a big breakfast!

hi all,
back from airfield with bad news, weather was not great so we decided not to do the test. biggest issue now is the next slot he has is tuesday. and the weather next week looks poor.
i am over from ireland and every extra day i spend in the uk is costing me money( time ome off work, accomidation food etc)

so on the hunt for a exaimner who has a slot on tomorrow,saturday,sunday( weather looks good ) and hopefully would travel to isle of wight.

Hey Paul,

Don't worry about it, my test was postponed many times. Hopefully it won't cost you too much.

As mentioed before, spend your time on the ground brushing up on the content of the test, procedures (HASELL, FREDA, emergencies etc). You'll feel more prepared.

Most of all, relax and don't get too anxious, the test will come eventually.

Andoni
