So I haven’t posted much about my progress on my IFR cert or any of my flying in general. Around April I decided that I really should just get my IFR ticket done and have been working with Travis (one of our local CFII’s) to get back on the horse and finish up my IFR training. After my last post last year, I decided to just take a break and do some more XC flights with family. Multiple trips to NJ (before the TFR’s were an issue) as well as some flights to Ocean City MD and other destinations to help build time. Basically I just flew for fun for a while.
I just passed my Stage 2 Check ride (and yes I know I could have done better!) and am working on getting both my BFR and my IR XC flights done in the next few weeks. This will then fulfill my experience / time requirements for the IR Checkride. I still have a vaild IR written test result that expires in Nov and I’ll just need to study up for the oral and polish up my maneuvers with Travis. Hopefully I’ll be posting that I got my IR cert in the next month or so.
