Harmattan, Chinook & Ghibli

The time has already gone so quickly since my last update, when I was talking about a few new subjects that we were starting. Well it’s now a few weeks later and Gas Turbines is nearly finished, along with Meteorology, Airframes and Human Performance. We should be pretty much done with those by the end of this week. Not so good are AC Electrics and Principles of Flight, both of which we are only half way through the book with only 8 days of school left! According to the guys in charge we are on schedule, though it is a bit of worry! We also started Communications this week, which is the thinnest book (hence us starting it so late) and comprises 2 of the JAA exams! Easy marks apparently…

Life pretty much now consists of getting up and going to school each day, working through lunch, getting home and sitting on the OAA online question bank (Oxcel) all night. The only break is for dinner or if I’m going for a run. Will be very glad when we get a bit of time off, just to chill out with a bit of random TV or a trip to the pub!

That said, I did spend the weekend just gone in Swansea, visiting all my ex-Borders colleagues. Had a brilliant time seeing everyone, though did feel a small bit of guilt at not getting any work done.

So, only this week and next of classes remaining, then it’s School Finals the following Monday & Tuesday. After that, it’s a week and a half of intensive revision (providing we pass the School Finals) and we sit our first 7 JAA exams w/c 1st March.
