Jeppesen Aviator Bag

Just purchased the "Jeppesen Aviator Bag" to store transport the David Clark Headset and paper work. $185 from the Skylines shop at Moorrabin Airport.

Cancelled Flight

This is one of the most frustrating things about learning to fly, even the slightest sign of bad weather, i.e, fog this morning, ruins your day. I was up early and in the car ready for for 50K drive to the Airport when I got the call from Will, can't fly due to fog which means no horizon. Never mind I will go for Sunday instead.

New Headset - David Clark

Nothing too exciting to report but I have have just purchased my first headset, a David Clark H10.13-4 for $550 Australian, inc delivery. Great unit from Aeroparts and comes highly recommended. Am flying tomorrow morning weather permitting and will be practicing climbing and descending turns.

General Notes

Lesson 4 with Will; covered climbs, descents and turns. Some general notes to assist with my study are included.

Note: When retracting flaps after takeoff (approx 500 feet) the nose will pitch downward and require back pressure on the control column to maintain attitude and airspeed. Likewise when extending flaps for final approach the noise will pitch up, and therefore requires some forward pressure to maintain attitude and air-speed.
