Today may have been my last official training day. Brian and I went out into the hazy morning in search of good pylons. Unfortunately, the valleys were full of fog, so we practiced our high maneavers instead. Steep turns went very well, and chandelles and lazy eights were pretty good, too.

Today may have been my last official training day. Brian and I went out into the hazy morning in search of good pylons. Unfortunately, the valleys were full of fog, so we practiced our high maneavers instead. Steep turns went very well, and chandelles and lazy eights were pretty good, too.
Since we really wanted to do turns on pylons, we headed north up past Lake Stevens to find some farmland that was not hidden by the fog. We found an area and did the turns - they went very well.
Back at the airport, I attempted four power off 180 degree landings. The first two went very well, the third was short and resulted in a go-around, and the fourth was a little high and resulted in a longer-than-acceptable landing.
A couple hours later, Brian called with details about my check ride. It will be at noon on September 23. The end is now clearly in sight.
