Solo 12: Couldn't stay on the ground

Total Time: 56.2
PIC time logged this flight: 1.3
Landings: 175

I told myself I wouldn't do any flying until I passed my written. That lasted until today. It's been 5 days since I last flew, and I just couldn't stay on the ground any longer.

Took 00Q up for a jaunt out to the practice area west of the airport, practiced turns around a point, S-turns, and steep turns after climbing to a higher altitude. Overall I was not happy with my maneuvers, turns around a point seemed to be the best, and S-turns the worst.

Back to Mettetal for some landing practice, as well as soft/short field takeoff's.

Still not happy with how my practice written tests are going, so I will be hitting the books again until I get it right.

I have another lesson scheduled for tomorrow, and we might stay out late to finish up the last of my night time landing requirements.
