Clear for Takeoff

Finally I am clear to go back to flight school.  After another catscan the doctor determined that my pain is not apendicitis or a kidney stone.  They’re still not sure what is causing the pain but at this point they are confident it is nothing to worry about. 

I spent my first day back in the air flying a triangle cross-country.  We flew Gateway to Gila Bend to Ryan Airfield back to Gateway.  It was a fun experience and broke up the monotony of going out to the practice area and going over maneuvers.  Except for some bumpy air, the weather participated. 

Tomorrow I will do a solo cross-country to Marana.  I also need to seriously hit the books.  Two people from ground school class went for their checkrides.  Based on their performance in ground school, I assumsed both would pass.  One did, the other busted the oral.  So I’m a little anxious.
