FNPT II + Exams

Busy, busy and again, busy ... that's how I would describe the latest months and forthcoming ones too. Some weeks ago we continued with the FNPTII missions, which aren't easy at all. Preparation, briefings, flying, debriefings, ... it takes some time and effort, for sure!

Yesterday (monday) we received a briefing about the departure to Arizona and - for us, 6B - the final dates for the official theoretical ATPL Exams. We'll start the 7th of july, which is also the day 6A will cross the ocean towards Mesa. Date of departure for 6B will (normally) be the 11th of august.

So, exams (updated):

07/07/200808:45-15:10FLIGHT PLANNING AND MONITORING, MASS & BALANCE, PERFORMANCE
10/07/200808:10-15:10GENERAL NAVIGATION, RADIO NAVIGATION, PRINCIPLES OF FLIGHT, HUMAN PERFORMANCE & LIMITATION
24/07/200808:10-14:45AIRFRAME / SYSTEMS / POWER PLANT, INSTRUMENTS / ELECTRONICS, AIR LAW
31/07/200809:15-15:35METEOROLOGY, OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES, VFR COMMUNICATIONS, IFR COMMUNICATIONS

It looks like I'll share my Belgian summertime with flying in a dark simroom (with low visibility conditions!) and studying in a hot attic room ...
