BecM Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Ok so I hate exams and this one was no exception. More solo time, more touch and goes... But I passed and that was the main thing.. I am planning on two days flying next weekend as there is no AFL umpiring for me to do ... YAY can't wait!! Have a great week.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecM Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Thanks all. I am glad it is all over the BAK that is.. Physics and me don't mix Tommo, Yeah I am a teacher but it doesn't mean that I like exams... I t is a good feeling to get it out of the road but now... Human Factors. Just when it seems close there is another exam to go... Ahh well.. Any tips?? Bec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonflyer Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Its just the start too!It can go as short or as far as you like. Enjoy the ride, and remember how much you hate the exams when you set them for the kids! Congrats:thumb_up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecM Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Let me know how it goes.. If I had more time to study I'd give the HF a go on the weekend but I don't think I'll be up to it. Haven't even read the book yet :) Well done on passing your BAK Tommo :thumb_up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecM Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Tricky... I have started reading and I am confused... nutrition... Are they joking?? Hmm what comes after this?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Just have a dictionary near by....... If you don't understand some things, or they sound real technical, there not that bad when you see the actual definition... Like Nutrition! sounds confusing to some, when all it means is, the process of providing or obtaining the food necessary for health and growth... in other words, if you live completely on take away foods, you won't have the full nutrition necessary for health and growth to there full extent! Psychological: Physiological: Sociology: Ps. What book are you studying out of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 If you haven't already done so... check out Hiho's articles section, for Human Factors... great piece of information...! Here tis' Ps. Just a hint, remember how long it is before flying after diving....... a hint from my instructor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brett Campany Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 And make sure you know what a "slip" is! Oh and remember...food poisoning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredRacer Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Congrat's Tomo on your BAK pass. I've done and passed my HF exam a couple of months back, but I've still got my BAK to go. I've had to put my flying to the back burner at the moment as I am too busy with work. But I am catching up on the work side so I expect to be back flying in another 3-4 weeks. But before I do so I'll need to find the time to do some more studying, because I'm expecting to sit for my BAK exam the next time I turn up.

BecM Posted May 23, 2009 Author Share Posted May 23, 2009 Well it's done and passed. What a STUPID exam... Hope yours goes well Tommo :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecM Posted May 23, 2009 Author Share Posted May 23, 2009 Nope not that bad.. common sense plays a part although not the case in all. Yeah was quick, I can retain information when I need to. Forced landings today and more crosswind landings... I want more solo time but not when it was a gusty as today.. Loving it.. was soo peaceful being up at 4000 just cruising before stalls etc were thrust upon me by my wonderful instructor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 before stalls etc were thrust upon me by my wonderful instructor. Stall's in a Jab aren't that bad... if you go into them nice enough you hardly even know your stalled if your up high enough, and don't look at the instruments:big_grin: That's good about it being not to bad... some hope in there then:thumb_up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pop-top Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Wooow! Congrats to both of you! sounds as though you're just breezing through it :) I'm very happy to report that I'm around the same point in my exams; just passed the BAK but next up for me is nav/met (then I think i have HF and air leg). Could I ask...do you both have full time jobs at the moment, how on earth do you get the time to do this so fast and sit exams on a tuesday? I'm very jealous! :) Good luck with your next exams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
