Instrument Rating Training


Today I passed the instrument Ground school final exam, which means I can go ahead and take the FAA instrument exam !! that's great ! IFR ( Instrument Flight Rules), is a rating which would give the pilot the ability to fly even in low visibility, or have no visual reference to the ground. it is precise flying. when flying in the clouds, if a pilot trust his senses ( feel, visual), he might end up upside down and not knowing it ! that's why this rating is required in all the airlines !
a lot of studying is required in Instrument training, but I managed to make it through the class, which means I'm fine ! 
Also today I recieved a not-so-good news. I have to paulse my flight training because I need a "new" TSA clearance for Instrument training, which either me nor my instructor know about. so, I have to apply for TSA, and they will approve, then i will pay them another $130, and they will approve... god knows how long it will take.... so with that said...I think I have a little big of break here! oh ya! summer break! what to do??
here's my STRIPE !
