Almost There..

What a tiring few days; today we finished the last of our internal examinations of groundschool. The past two days has seen the class endure seven exams.

A three hour stint saw the start of the day with two more gruelling exams follow. At the end of it all came the tortuous hour and a half wait, whilst the results were processed. We all waited eagerly in the Airport Coffee shop, some sipping on ice cold beers, some with their heads in their hands. The atmosphere was filled with tension, excitement and anxiety.

The results of the exams would determine whether we would be put forward for the external JAA exams. If not, we would have to re-sit internals which could delay the start of flight training.

Tomorrow 0840 sharp we are expected for a full debrief.

Now only seven exams stand between us and the gleaming sunshine of Arizona..
