Finally! I’ve found a day that is expected to be sunny! I am super psyched to fly! I’ve been grounded for a while now and am not liking it one bit. On the 22nd I am scheduled to meet with Johnny from 16:00 to 19:00. I have my favorite plane, N43020, from 17:00 to 19:00. I’m not sure what we will be working on but it really doesn’t matter. All that matters is that I’ll be flying!!! Thanks for reading everyone.

My next lesson is when this dumb spring weather goes away. I’ve been trying to schedule a lesson for the past 2 weeks now with no luck. I’ve looked at the forecast for the area, and there is either supposed to be heavy rain and thunderstorms or mostly cloudy skies. I’m going to keep trying, but at the rate I’m at now, I won’t fly until June. We’ll see though. Anyway, thanks for reading!!!

As you’ve probably guessed, today’s lesson was canceled due to a few low clouds and some wicked wind. I’m looking for a good date to reschedule but I can’t really find one. I’ve been using the Weather Channel also to find a nice date, but unfortunately it looks like rain for the next two weeks. One I have a better lookat the weather comming up, I’ll reschedule the lesson and let everyone know. Thanks for reading!!!

I just called the Lockheed FSS for the first time ever for an outlook briefing for tomorrows flight. The man helping me was actually quite helpful. He got me a few forecasts for the Northern Illinois area and explained them quite well. Based on the forecast he gave me, tomorrow will probably be called off. The forecast calls for winds at 13 knots gusting to 26 knots, rain clouds at 4,000 feet, and rain showers in the vicinity of the airport; definitely not good conditions for a student pilot. However, he did also say that the prediction ended at noon tomorrow so there is still a chance! Let’s pray and hope for a nice day tomorrow. Thanks for reading!!!

United Airlines hosted a career day with Southern Illinois University to promote the industry and more specifically the university’s aviation programs. It was a great event to learn about college level aviation programs as well as talk to some of the pilots in the industry. Today’s long day started with an early wake up of 4:30.
