Flight Day 30  

Posted by y. 源

My friend was scheduled to fly 0730 hours yesterday but he gave me his slot because his instructor told him to delay his sortie.

I flew GH7 solo. The weather early in the morning was damn good. Wind was calm. No low clouds. Beautiful sunrise. And as usual, I practiced the air exercises at training area for 20minutes before I rejoined the circuit to train my landing and circuit's air exercises. This time, there were none kangaroo landings!

Later in the afternoon, I was supposed to fly Nav3 (to Penang airport and then back to Lgk airport) with my instructor. Weather looked kinda shitty when we were about to take-off. He said we would fly anyway, if weather became worse, the sortie gonna be cancelled and we gonna turn back to land.

However, what caused me to cancel that sortie was not because of weather. But rather it was because of engine problem. Propeller RPM overspeed and the Oil Pressure was low. Damn.

Today again I am programmed to fly Nav2 (solo) Hopefully weather is good and there is aircraft for me.
