I didn't get a chance to write about ground school last week. I was a very late starter and didn't have my study material until yesterday. I had a King Schools study course but it required me to go back to Monarch Aviation all of the time and take tests there before I could advance through their course. The material was great but the production quality was less than desirable. It looked like it was shot on VHS. I did like the ability to take tests at the end of each section but the ASA course I'm taking now does the same but looks a lot better. I really liked the quality of the Sporty's stuff too.
I found out that in my first class, they went over a lot of material that I didn't know so I really paid attention. My second night was informative (I still didn't have my material) but it did cover material I already knew very well. I joined this class to try and get something more out of it than just what was in the study material. I can study this material on my own and probably ace the test. I wanted some interaction with other potential pilots and to see how I stacked up against them. I do enjoy talking to most everyone but I made the mistake of trying to catch up to where the class is and surpassing it. I did it all in one night. I ended up going 3 sections ahead of where we are. What we are doing right now (Procedures and Airport Ops), I have already covered in my old material. I am caught up until we get to weather, even though I think I need to do the weather all over again because it is really hard. There is a large amount to cover in weather and it is always changing.
Tonight will be a short post as I need some sleep. I'm too worn out from work today and helping Anna get over being sick. Here is to Thursday.
