More by myself

An early morning flight, we decided to do some more airwork, with an approach into Camarillo (CMA) and then the ILS back into Van Nuys. The VOR into CMA was educational, because the step-down fixes come pretty quick, so the workload is high. I flew it fast as well, which made things even tougher. I handled it OK, flew the missed approach and headed home. Flew a pretty good ILS there, just momentarily losing the glideslope about 150 feet above DH.

The airwork was very good today. I was very focused on all the maneuvers, and am gaining confidence in my ability to control the plane. This week I’ll try to NAIL Kent’s brutal exercise at least once. That will be the clue that I’m ready for more approach work and cross country planning.
