What a Drag..

Today, the day seemed quite repetitive, with a number of double lessons during the day. Morale amongst the group seems to be at a low with some reaching saturation point with all of the information that we are trying to take in.

A number of lessons on Principles of Flight seemed to go on for an eternity..!

The highlight of the day ended up being a walkaround of one of the maintenance hangers, in which we got to climb around an aircraft and have a play with the cockpit..!

A few of the planes being operated are from the 1970's..!! Nearly twice as old as I am..!!

The manner of teaching here is completely different to anything I have expereienced in the past; we are very much spoon fed the information that we need to know and exactly how things are done. There is very little in the way of independent thinking. This being said; I am definately acquiring a taste for being spoon fed education..!!
