Studying...

The first week of school is really all about knowing as much as possible of the R22 (our helicopter) as you can, because if something happens during the flight you have no time to consult an aircraft manual for oh let's say... your best glide speed.
So my day is mainly focused on absorbing as much data of the helicopter flight data in as little time as possible, while also preparing the upcoming ground school lessons (next up: navigation).
i'm still a bit jetlagged and waking up at 4am isn't unusual, but I guess that by the end of this week things should start to normalise. Some new photos are up on flickr. There's some pictures of classroom material and from a bike ride I took to the bank today.
