Started IFR!
Today was 1st day for IFR. We didn't do any flying, but just quick overview of what to expect, the new plane (152 to 172) and talked about CIA (Cross check - Interpret - Aircraft control) and things like that. What kind of scans there are ( T scan, V scan etc.) Tomorrow I will start the flying portion. The way Delta Conn Academy designed it is 1 sim, and 1 flight. You get to learn it in the sim pretty much, and put it to use on the flight. If you got it figured out in the sim, you'll have no trouble in the plane and should go through them quick hopefully. I really hope I'll stay under 7 grand for this course. I got 3400 to start off with, and with today's ground that leaves me with like 3366 or something. I will be flying 5 days a week, and most likely if time permits I will do 1 sim, then go fly the same day. I should go through this course like crazy. if everything goes to plan and I can find some more money when the 3300 I have runs out I might be done with this course in a month or two! (I was saying the same thing for private, it ended up taking 5 months!). Anyways, I'm excited, time for some hood flying :)
