Sometimes, I unexpectedly feel the urge to carve a wooden spoon with an axe, and while I'm not sure why this impulse arises, it’s incredibly satisfying. The smell of cedar on my hands afterward is really enjoyable and makes me love the whole experience, even though it seems quite odd.

The text discusses a flight training experience, focusing on using an MCP client, a tool for handling files, and training with an instructor named Demi. The writer is learning to manage power and pitch more effectively, especially when flaps are down, and is getting better at aligning with the glide slope. They note the importance of keeping a hand on the throttle and using carb heat appropriately. The writer also plans to surf in the morning and review briefings and checklists for the next flight. The speaker appreciates the reduced workload from consistent focus and expresses interest in flying better planes, specifically noting that 20543 is significantly better than Quebec Alpha. They mention considering demi-suction mounting with the pivot case, despite the cost, and recognize the need to learn more about ForeFlight, particularly for VFR navigation and basic features. The speaker also wants to review checklists, engine shutdown procedures, and idle procedures, and emphasizes the importance of being briefed properly on the extinguisher and taking over emergency procedures. Lastly, they plan to review their logbook and do some calculations.

The user is considering building a Tauri app to manage and create custom checklists, such as for obtaining a private pilot's license. The app would allow users to install modules and generate checklists that can be printed or shared as files. They are contemplating whether to use a local database or JSON files for data storage and syncing across devices, possibly with a simple cloud service for cross-device access. The user is currently leaning towards using local browser storage but is open to exploring better solutions. They acknowledge it's a niche idea but see potential in simplifying the process of managing personal checklists. The user is about to pick up Katie and head to Suchyota, indicating they might not delve into this idea further immediately.

In today’s flight training session, the focus was on landings, with a total of seven at a single airport, Ramona, instead of the initially planned two different locations. The decision to stick to one airport was driven by the complexity of landing and managing communication with the tower. Cloud cover at around 3,600 feet required flying lower than usual, about 3,000 feet, and adjusting the flight path to the northeast to avoid mountains. During communication with Ramona Tower, the pilot made several mistakes, which Chris, likely the instructor, had to correct. On the ground, the pilot struggled with the instructions "line up and wait" and "hold short." The takeoff from Montgomery Field was challenging due to crosswinds, with the pilot dipping the left wing too much and possibly rotating too early. Despite these issues, the pilot managed to get the plane airborne. Chris also assisted by clarifying the "hold short" instruction and landing the plane at Ramona. The pilot acknowledges these errors were likely due to the high cognitive load of handling multiple new tasks simultaneously. During a recent flight session, the pilot focused on improving their landing skills through multiple touch-and-go landings and a final landing at Montgomery. They noted difficulties with descending, maintaining the correct glide slope, and airspeed, often dropping below the 65-knot landing speed. Despite these challenges, they managed one particularly good landing, which gave them hope and motivation. The pilot is planning more pattern work and possibly some instrument training in their next session on Monday. They also aim to refine and laminate their checklists, especially for emergency procedures and landings, and are considering a new flight board or making one themselves. Communication with air traffic controllers remains a challenge at times, and they acknowledge the need to improve in this area as well.
