Out of Annual, Landing Blues
32169 is back in service after being inspected again. Mostly minor things needed to be fixed, but it won’t be my cheapest annual ever or anything. We’re still wrestling with the EGT and making sure that nothing weird happened to the vacuum pump – and the vacuum pump is by far the more important.
I spent a bunch of time this weekend getting reacquainted with her, and mostly working landings. Every now and again, most pilots get a bug to work on their landings, and I have it. I’ve been reading the aviation mags and seeing some of the bad habits they describe in my landings, so I’ve been working to tune them back up. I’m making good progress, I think, but I suspect that next time I go up for IFR currency with Andy, my CFI, I’ll spend some time landing.
