On another note, I had my second attempt at the Aviation Law exam today. to set the scene, I had fallen asleep last night with the laptop on, headphones in and aviation law study cd merrily churning through the subject. I woke and got little sleep with a constant flow of QNH's and flight levels and CofA's and Cof R's and other stuff going through my head.
When I got into Bournemouth Helicopters at lunch time I wasn't feeling too confident. I was to be honest close to canceling the next four booked flights and waiting till i had passed the exam. I did find out though that I could sit it three times so though it was worth the gamble to see if I did actually know what i thought I knew. Having failed yesterday I have been feeling very despondent about the thought of re-sitting.
After using the whole hour and checking my answers twice, I submitted the papers and awaited the results.....
87.5% and the pass mark was 75%. 5 wrong and they were mostly silly mistakes through not understanding the question. That would have meant my first solo flight but the weather, as clear and as 25 degrees as it still is, the wind is blowing 13 knots so a solo was out of the question. We had a spin round though looking at limited power take offs and some run on landings which served the time well. Next flight is 17 days away so in that time I'll have to try and get my Human Performance exam done and out of the way. Onwards and Upwards!
