It has been a while since i’ve had an IFR lesson.  Weather and ground school studies has been keeping me away.  I am hopeful that my flight next week pans out.  We are coming to the end of my ground school class and as I prep for the test I am limiting my flight attempts to once a week right now.

That hasn’t stopped me from flying.  Last weekend I went up for a maneuvers and currency flight with my son.  Believe it or not, but during my IFR training so far, I haven’t been able to keep decently current with my VFR passenger requirements.

In order to be VFR current for passengers you must have 3 take offs and landings in the last 90 days.  The way my lessons were working out, with one landing per lesson, my currency was just slowly creeping ahead a few weeks at a time.

Look the real reason wasn’t currency at all.  To be honest, my club has a cookout on the second Saturday of every month and the burgers are awesome!  If you’re ever in the Sanford area on a second Saturday.  Come check it out.  We have an awesome club.  … And Burgers …. And hotdogs/brats … oh and also members! 😀
