It doesn,t work that way, as I still have to get Passed that CFO.

Loved flying with my instructor, he was taken aback with my failure as well. He thought I was ready to solo.
I didn,t expect that outcome.

" The Morning Glory cloud is a rare meteorological phenomenon consisting of a low-level atmospheric solitary wave and associated cloud, occasionally observed in different locations around the world. The wave often occurs as an amplitude-ordered series of waves forming bands of roll clouds. ".

My instructor gave me heaps of confidence,
BUT ( always a But ) !.
When taking my flight test the senior instructor knocked it all out of me, never so nervous in the Foxbat even on my First day.
Light weight in the right seat & I lost a few kilos, so he said " I took of too fast ".
Different words than what was used by my flight instructor, so did a touch&go instead of what he wanted. He told me I,m wasting his time & my money.
SO
Failed

AND I had thought, that the designer has done all those density and all the rest of the other sciance maths during the design stage !, and I only have to say "it,s a nice day to fly " not to cold ( icing ) not to hot (themals ), plus engine seizure / fuel evaporation.
So
Designed for My day

" Angle of attack is to do with the angle of the airfoil to the relative wind.Until people understand where the relative wind is they will have trouble. "
I tried to put into words the fact that " the AoA " is irrelevant, in that an airliner dropped vertically into the sea while still at a level attitude.
super powered aircraft can lift Vertical from the ground with zero forward motion and NO airflow over the wings. ( can't think of that name off hand). " jump jet"
The Komit rocket plane flies vertically quite a long way to it's target, ( yes it has airflow over it's wing )
were is the Maths in that deadly airliner disaster.

YES
Thank you Jerry.
That explains why my cousin & partners, ( all aged ) took an axe, and chopped up their Cessna for scrap metal.
Gave flying away, but I don,t know if they got rid of their boat, ( moored ar the Norfolk Broards ) that they took over to Europe for a months holiday annually.
