During my preflight hobbs Check AE direct to Chicago taxied by so I picked up my camera. IFR training is fun to a point. Unless you break minimums by 10 feet on a VOR approach due to gust of wind. Keep that 50ft cushion guys. Back to flying tomorrow. IFR to Terra Heute, Indiana.

oh well.. I'll post the pic on my website soon. I'm haven't been on DVA as often so I'm not sure if pics are showing up or if the size limit is smaller.

Keep up the hard work Mike. IFR is some of the most intense and stressful training in my opinion. I feel it is the most challenging ratings to get. But it all pays off when you need it to. Also brush up on your weather. I reccommend Aviation Weather Services. Aside from the ASA Oral review I feel this book was the best study tool.
