It has been a busy week; I have been meeting with my flight instructor every day this week in an effort to get things finished up in private pilot training. We flew this past Monday, Wednesday and again today while we did some ground instruction on Tuesday and Thursday. Today, we were supposed to fly out to a practice area to do some more maneuvers but all the practice areas were taken. My instructor then decided that we should stay in the pattern so I could practice some landings since we haven't been done any recently (when I think about it, it's sound reasoning!). That also meant a shorter flight today and I was okay with that.

After the usual pre-flight/pre-departure procedures, we got airborne and flew the traffic pattern. We got four laps in the pattern in before we had to call it quits. In that time, we got in the usual landing techniques, slips-to-landing, and even a go-around. Short flight, but it was good to get some landing practice in.
