More circuits

I feel like im going to be in circuits for ever more. we did 6 or 7 landings today. I got Stuart to do one whilst i watched just to refresh what its supposed to look like etc. I managed to put it down reasonably a couple of times, but nothing great, the circuits i feel quite comfortable with, remembered checks, and in particular the carb heat when powering back which i normally always forget.

Spoke to Martin - another instructor afterwards and he said he was in circuits for 13 hours - so i dont feel as bad now. He suggested another way to try "point the nose at the end of the runway, and keep it there, as you power back and get lower keeping it there will mean raising the nose etc" so will try that next time.
