Smooth.

I flew this morning around 7:15AM, a much better way to start the day than the "Process Change du Jour" meeting. I think that someday I shall move to Montana, wake up to a large american breakfast, and fly my aircraft from state to state. Do they let you do that? Yeah, maybe if the security of our homeland doesn't depend upon it.

But, I digress....

5 landings this morning, and a go around in 0.9 hours of flight. It was fantastic weather, very smooth air. I loved it - normally my flying has consisted of late afternoon thermals & thunderstorm dodging. I was able to set up a couple of very nice landings, speaking my intentions to the barren Coshocton UNICOM wasteland. Sometimes I wish for some cool traffic - like a jet or a couple of experiementals with similar N-numbers to break up the monotony of announcing my flying intentions to the empty air. C'mon, people....fly some more!

I found myself rather high (800ft AGL) on the final leg of my 2nd landing, which I probably would've tried to put down mid-way down the runway if I hadn't read the most recent AOPA Flight Training article which recommended to make a go around if the approach wasn't just right. So, I rode the approach down to about 100ft AGL, slowly applied power, gradually raised the flaps and made a go-around. The next landing, I concentrated harder and greased it.

Smooth.
