Phase One Check
It's been almost a month since my last update. Maybe I had nothing to express, maybe I had nothing to tell my friends, maybe I was not as bored as I usually am. I have, however, been busy with my flying. Now I am just waiting for my first flight check, or test, if you prefer.
Monday saw the last of my solo flights for this phase. I've been waiting ever since then to be put up for my check. When I'll be tested is up to the availability of the Senior Flight Instructors. I was fourth on the list as it is. The planners have told me Saturday might be the day of reckoning for me.
What should I know for this check? Everything that has been taught to me until now. All the basics of flying, which consists of different kind of turns (rate 1, medium level, steep), the emergency procedures, forced landings, recovery from unusual attitudes, class G procedures, different methods of landing approaches, and basic knowledge of aeronautics.
Abit nervous as this is considered one of the largest hurdles to achieve my goal as a commercial pilot.

On another note, fasting has been non eventful. It's already been two weeks, and days are passing by as usual. The only difference is that I go to the gym less often. Could be said that I don't go to the gym nor play any sports at all now. Ah well, will regain my normal life style once Ramadhan is over.
I'll be celebrating Hari Raya in Perth this year. In the past ten years, I think I've celebrated raya with my family only twice. It's always been either studies, or work. Must make it a point to celebrate next year's raya with family. If anyone has an open house in Perth do invite me over.
Selamat Berpuasa and Selamat Hari Raya.
