We've now been flying for two weeks and now something like 20 percent of the PPL flight course is now flown. Bad weather and low-base autumn clouds have bothered a little bit but we've still managed to get airborne almost every day. The 152 starts to become quite familiar already as I've grasped a certain routine to checklists and operational procedures.

Tomorrow we're taking a checklist exam where you're
supposed to remember all of the checklists by heart, so that you are
then not dependent on them in flight. Although checklists are an
essential part of flying and especially our professional pilot training,
it wouldn't be convenient if no-one of us knew how to fly the Cessna
152 without all the checklists. After all, it's an extremely simple
airplane to operate compared to large commercial airliners.
