I'm just done....No chance....

AngelFuree · August 3rd, 2005, 03:28

I was hoping I could finish 323 this summer...but there's no way that's gonna happen. I have to make up 13 hours by Friday's end. No flying for me tomorrow. Thunderstorms are gonna be around. Stage check on Thursday. No solo x-country allowed if doubling up. Leaves me w/ Friday.

Two tests tomorrow. Two finals on Thursday.
What a waste of money and time it was to have came here in the summer.

Does flight ops shut down from the 5th to the start of the fall semester or something? Couldnt you finish your 96 hours done then? Or will they make you retake the ground school classes in the fall if you're not done flying by Friday?

AngelFuree · August 4th, 2005, 02:30

They would make me retake the ground school. I just did a flight tonight. 3.8 hours. I'm gonna see how much I have left so I could try and make up the rest on Friday. I hope they'll let me do like 9 hours on Friday...or else...I'll be damned.

CAFFEINE · August 4th, 2005, 13:52

Well I dont know about 9 hours of flying in a day, but good luck bud. I recall from the first summer session that Trapnell gave us until noon on the following Monday to get the flying done. But you have Zeidlik huh?

AngelFuree · August 4th, 2005, 15:56

Woohoo! He just told us this morning....that we had until Sunday night because he would be turning in the grades on Monday. So that gives me a huge chance now

Stage today, wish me luck. =)

CAFFEINE · August 4th, 2005, 16:17

Good luck! Who is your stage check pilot?

AngelFuree · August 4th, 2005, 18:24

Julie Hall. Stage cancelled. Toooooo windy and an AIRMET for turbulance below 6000.
Yes, I'm a wuss. I know.

UAL747400 · August 4th, 2005, 23:49

Yeah, better to just do it on another day than risking screwing crap up and paying more money at least for your stage, which is your commercial one right? VFR manuvers would indeed suck. I remember I did my stage 20 during the mamximum winds UND would allow for dual flight. (25 knots I think). That was a pretty bad idea. I passed, but my power off landings were terrible. Took me two tries to get it.

Good luck whenever you do this. And yeah, you're a sissy!

roundout · August 5th, 2005, 07:09

35kts for dual, methinks?

UAL747400 · August 5th, 2005, 10:25

Whatever it was that day, it was "fun".

AngelFuree · August 5th, 2005, 14:46

Passed.

airplanerik · August 5th, 2005, 14:56

AWESOME!! Great Job!

CAFFEINE · August 5th, 2005, 16:39

Congrats! Hows the time building coming along?

AngelFuree · August 5th, 2005, 23:00

Thank you =)

Just got back from a x-country.
Tomorrow's my last one. 2.4 hours left!

CaptainChris87 · August 6th, 2005, 01:09

congrats dude.

AngelFuree · August 6th, 2005, 18:09

OMG!

I didn't know they closed the airport at 4:30 today...
I didn't get my time in. I just got 1.6 today, but will do .8 Monday morning. I spoke to the course manager, and he said I could do that on Monday, and that he would arrange stuff w/ my ground instructor. Talk about craaaaaaaazy!

UAL747400 · August 7th, 2005, 20:57

Holy crap dude! I would probably flip [censored] and most likely kill someone if I had to retake ground school for friggen .8 hours. Most likely I'd probably just be leaving that school the second they told me I had to retake the class instead of killing someone.

That would be serious B.S. that I would not put up with.

Foxcow · August 13th, 2005, 10:46

Congrats on beating a system that eats a lot of people.

AngelFuree · August 26th, 2005, 13:56

Haha thanks.
Finally got a confirmation on Wednesday that he changed my failure to a 'B'. I'm finally done w/ 323 lol.
