9am-noon
1658F (172, 180hp)
hobbs: 1.5
Flew with CFI/chief: Jim from OaklandFlyers - while Jeff was away for a week. It was good to get the experience / comfortable flying with different CFI. He showed me engine-out, slips, go-arounds, and all 'without warning' - he set up the situation, and either pulled out the throttle, or said 'go around' at the last minute of an approach with 1658F's 40 degrees of flaps in. Also showed how well you can trim a plane (even 1658F) and fly with just rudder peddles alone - which helped on my flight next week with Jeff (handling radio/etc was much less stressful in a well-trimmed aircraft).
