It's been a busy couple of weeks. Work continues apace and now the prospect of test ones looms large ahead of us. It's great to see how much of the course content is now under our belt and how the various concepts are starting to tie together, especially in met. It does also mean that even though these are purely internal tests, pre-exam nerves are starting to make an appearance in the class...
That said, it's not been entirely serious since last I posted. Last Thursday the school put on Happy Hour from half four until half five, apparently a monthly tradition to mark the day before the new course starts. Being our first happy hour we (almost inevitably and in accordance with our instructors' quasi-orders) crammed in as many beers as we could drink in an hour. Not feeling that we'd done the occasion justice we then scrubbed work for the evening, had dinner (and more beer) in the pub and then wandered back up the hill to our accommodation where we watched Top Gun. No cliches about students/pilots here at all then...
The final point for this evening then I suppose is that the aforementioned new course has now started, so we're no longer the babies of the school. Just hammers home how far along we now are...
