Week 1

Week one has almost finished and we are settled in our appartment.
From tomorrow on they predict that the temperature doesn't fall below 40°C. So it will be reeeaally hot!
Everyone is suffering from the heat but we begin to adapt...
we even begin to enjoy; our first BBQ was last weekend and at 10PM we were still sitting at the pool in our swimming outfit and then the temperatures are just good.

We arranged yesterday all our paperwork for our van so now all of our five can drive anywhere we want on the big american "lanes". The V8 engine is very powerful and snorrs quite loud but it drives soooo smooth and there's so much space inside!!

Today there was our first flight-briefings; the arrival and departure procedures of falcon field, pre-flight procedures of the DA20a (our first airplane we will fly) revision of controls/manoeuvres/speeds...
There is a good chance some of us we'll fly on Friday and as we get our books tomorrow we'll know what to do the next days. Flows, procedures, pitch-power of the DA20,...

We'll cross our fingers to get in the air as soon as possible!

See you soon!
