Sun and snow.
These 2 photos above are taken at the Chilliwack airport. One on a sunny day and the other on a snowing day (22nd Dec). It looks totally different. Obviously, the runway, taxiway and all our aircrafts are covered with snow. So it's a no flying day for us.
...and this is what we do on a non-flying day.
The next thing I am looking forward is to do my first solo flight. Some students can go for solos as soon as they clocked 10 over hours. Others needed more practice to do that. Solo sounds like a very scary thing for a student. Imagine you are flying on your own. You instructor will not be there to help nor guide you. You are doing everything by yourself.
Actually, it's not that scary. Your instructor will be the one assessing your competency in handling the a/c. He will give you the green light to go solo only if he knows you are up to it. Basically, You have to taxi the a/c from the terminal to the runway via the taxiway, take off and join the circuit. Complete a circuit, carry out a landing and bring your a/c back to the terminal. There you go, your first solo flight.
By the way, you need to pass 2 in-house test before your solo, they are the PSTAR and Radio Operator test. I've taken and passed both of them already. Now I just need to focus on my flying. Oh yes, my Class 1 medical cert. I pray they reach me soon.
