Did my first circuits flight in the Seneca in 40C today, despite it being reported as 36C! I’m happy (and relieved) to say that my landings have transformed from controlled crashes to smoother landings that leave the gear in a happier mood! Once I was up in the air, the temperature didn’t bother me too much, as I was too busy to think about it! We started off with two normal touch and gos, then a flap-less and then an asymmetric (i.e. on one engine only) go-around followed by an asymmetric landing. I’ve now got 4 more flights before my CPL skills test!
