Solo flight from OAK to Livermore (LVK) for touch-n-goes - 10/13/2002


10/13 Sunday

99348 Solo - 1.4 hobbs/PIC
OAK-LVK

7 T&Gs at LVK
1 to/ld at OAK - (no flaps on this one - I think?)

4 normal landings at LVK
1 short field
1 short approach
1 no flaps

all of these went well!
the main thing was to trim for hands-off flight at the specified speed, and use power to adjust the glidepath.
somehow, I forgot this, and was really hand-flying the plane for all recent landings.
not to mention with XC practice, and pre-checkride stuff, few landings in a row to work things out like approach etc...

got to within about 500' of every aiming point, and never short of any of them. Really paid attention to airspeed, energy, and such this time. The short field was definitely within tolerances...
