不過我當然不會啦！用拖的都要把自己拖去考試。

Second Solo
Here's how it goes, 1st solo, i did 3 takeoffs and 3 landings, 2nd solo, I get to do a lot of them, as much as I can do in 2 hrs, practice a bunch of different Takeoff and Landings, that's what I did today. I wasn't expect to solo again because I don't read the syllubus..which I should .
anyway, I got to the airport, and he told me I was gonna do my 2nd solo, which is great, I get to pay less, haha, no instructor fee, ( not that I don't like him, he's a great guy).
yeah, it was pretty exciting and fun, just like my 1st solo. on Monday, depending on the weather, I get to do local solo, which means I can fly out to the practice area and practice and come back. great ! ! this is where the fun starts! after that, we will go over some radio Navigations and prepare for my cross country flight @@

First solo flight 3/4/10 @@
That is right, my man~ my first solo flight today at Denton Municiple Airport, Cessna 152.
the day started off very windy, even though Grant (my awsome instructor) have 100% confidence in me making solo, the school has some restrictions on first solo student, so I didn't think I was gonna solo today as the wind is off the limit (15kt and gusting 20)..
Anyway, we were bored in the school, I was waiting for my ground school to start in 1 hour, I checked the weather again just for the hell of it.. 13kt @@, ok....maybe we can make this happen!
still, 13kt coming from 20 degrees off my nose, so a crosswind landing will be performed, and i think I have that down, Grant and I jumped into the plane, and do 1 pattern just to make sure I'm REALLY ready, he jumps out of the plane and wishes me luck ! there it is, my 3 landings as PILOT IN COMMAND! MY MAN~ the traffic got kinda busy all of a sudden, the tower wanted me to do this do that wait for this give way to that, hold short because there's a DEAD EAGLE on the runway... dude...this is my solo, does this have to happen right now ? haha, but anyway, it was funny, I creamed in the cockpit on my first takeoff, haha, Grant said that he did that too when he first soloed, I was nervous, but also confident, i know what I had to do and when to do them, this is a very special day and I will remember every second I spent in that solo for the rest of my life !
so, I guess this checkpoint is behind me now, i'm looking forward to more flights that are forthcoming and some cross country flying@@

YOU ARE GOLDEN DUDE @@
今天是緊張的 pre-solo checkride,其實也就是單飛前跟另一個資深一點的教練飛，他確定我沒問題後接下來就可以單飛了！！ 今天出門後，看一下天空，有一些些高雲，很好，我想代表著穩定的氣流。 到了學校，唉....不知道在搞啥，學校電腦壞掉，查天氣的電話也短路...最後還是跟教練借他的 I-PHONE 查了天氣。上了飛機，跟我想的一樣，天氣超好，沒啥風。今天基本上就是帶他出去兜兜風，他盡量不要幫我，讓他知道我知道自己在幹麻。 到了練習區，先來個 steep turns，slow flight，stalls，engine failure。讓我印象深刻的就是，他幾乎沒有說多少話，都在忙著看他的 I-phone，看啥？youporn? 不會吧。 anyway, 一個好的 steep turn當你轉了一個360的圈圈後，如果沒掉高度的話，最理想的就是飛過自己的亂流，今天就是那樣，左右各一次，讓他不僅問我 " how many hours do you have? that's pretty impressive "整個高興...哈哈 然後他就要我帶他回去，因為他覺得我知道自己在幹麻 也覺得我飛機控制的很好，回去後要做幾個touch and go，第一個超好，第二個在 final時飛機真的很穩，沒有左右晃或是上下晃，這都是trim 跟 油門控制的功勞，他突然就說 " YOU ARE GOLDEN DUDE" 哈哈，這應該是讚美啦！雖然我很少聽到，但是喜歡被誇獎的我聽到後心情大好！哈哈 今天確實飛得真的很好，難得的好天氣！ 回去後，他在我的logbook上簽名，明天跟我的教練去飛，順利的話明天就可以單飛啦！ 152TR, my favorite plane for now ! 今天就是飛他＠＠

Eclipes Project part II
Thunder storm came this morning, I thought it was gonna rain all day, but I was wrong, it became very pleasant with a slight breeze. perfect day to wash and wax the car !
so, the car is hand-washed, hand-dried, hand-waxed, hand-vaccumed, and it turned out really great, looks like NEW and it smells good !! I think next step is to put a for sale sign on the window and post on craigslist...oh no..wait, need to fix that starter and find out what's causing the engine to die...anyway, right now it looks cool !

Eclipes Project part 1
First step, make sure the car is drivable.. that's what I thought, the battery is dead ! alright, i can always jump start it, it worked at first, and I let it run for about 20min before I shut it down and try to start it by itself...oops...I think the battery is REALLY dead, it can no longer store battery..hum....ok, change it at WalMart will take care of that... the battery is $75 ! a lot more than what I expected, I thought it's gonna be somewhere around $30... and the guy told me that I should get my starter checked out... yeah...even with a new battery, the starter sounded weak... I should get that checked out.. and finally, the car wash! haha...the guy at the car wash place saw me and told me it was too low to go into the car wash..haha.. okie, i'll just have to do it myslef, it's not like I've never done it before, so I went back home and get ready for a hand wash, ok...the hose is stuck....jeez !
i should be able to wash the car with some other hose, i'll get that tomorrow. and a self-service interior clean up.
