After the debacle of trying to land at Frazier Lake last Wednesday, I needed to get some landing confidence back before tomorrow\u2019s stage check so I booked some solo time to practice landings in the pattern at RHV. The airports was really busy, when I contacted Ground Control he warned me of delays and that was pretty much how it went. I did just seven trips around the pattern, 6 landings and one go around because I let myself get too high on final. This took a full 1.3 hours to accomplish. There was a lot of radio work, watching for traffic and extending downwind for incoming traffic. I really should have been practicing short and soft field technique, but it was enough to just do standard landings with all the other distractions. None of the landings were terrible, but none were great either. I\u2019m not sure it really gave me back all the confidence I wanted, but at least I could land the damm thing safely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not a lot to say about today\u2019s flight.
