Passed the oral portion of the instrument checkride, but there's an overcast layer at only 500 feet so the flight is postponed until tomorrow. The instrument checkride must be flown in VFR conditions, so I'm a slave to Mother Nature for now. More of the same weather is forecast for tomorrow.
UPDATE -- Grounded again Wednesday. Now it's thunderstorms which may continue through tomorrow.
UPDATE UPDATE -- Grounded again Thursday. Waited around from 6:30am to about 1:30pm for the cloud layers to disappear but no joy. Forecast is clear tomorrow, so we should be in business. Hope I still remember how to fly...

About Me
- Ryan Tobin
- Arlington, TX, United States
- After the better part of 13 years in the travel business, I've taken the leap toward something I've wanted to pursue for a very long time... becoming an airline pilot. I have left the comfy California confines for the balmy open spaces of Arlington, Texas (near Dallas) to begin flight training at ATP. I'll be maintaining this blog to update my beloved family and friends of my progress.
