Solo circuit Extravaganza!

Well a big day this one, ive got 3 lessons booked in. The first two of the day turned out to be solo circuits for me :)

The last one, ive blogged on its own as its a different excercise.

Both trips involved Stuart coming with me for the first circuit then getting out at the compass base.

I pilied in the time today, got a total of 2:25 solo time in :)
I had everything in the circuits today:
Left hand
Right Hand
Change overs
Late clearance from atc, saying i may have to go around due to vortex
Orbit everywhere
Extend downwind for 3nm to allow 737 in
Grass cutting clearance - displaced threshold at Mike etc

You name it!

Very tired at the end of the day. Most of my landings were fair, no big bangs, but only a couple which were very sweet! I did try my hand at adding a bit of power as i flared to early on one, at it worked well. Learnt alot today - sleep now! oh no another lesson coming.
