I flew again Sunday morning. Winds were about 20 kts, so wisely, Paul didn't clear me for my solo xc to Perryville. We practiced in the pattern instead. All of the turbulence made it harder to remember everything, but after 3 landings everything was coming together pretty well and I felt good about the lesson. The biggest problem today was the heat inside the airplane. I need to find or wear different sunglasses, these started steaming over after a while. Also, my hands were sweating so much it was hard to keep a good grip on the yoke. I'm really ready for some better weather. Next scheduled flight this coming Sunday again. I have been working on my written test material too. I did a 100 question practice test on chapters 1-8 (of 11 Gleim chapters) and got a 96%...so I am feeling pretty good about it. I just need to add another chapter. The chapter where I have to use the E-6B flight computer looks tricky...but I will manage somehow. Just amazed at all of the things I am trying to remember all the time.
