Aero Test
I passed the aerodynamics test this morning. After this week, no more academics. We're moving on to the cockpit trainers and learning all the flight procedures. It's moving fast, but for now it's welcome. My wingman and I got in the sim again for another prof sit and we brought our time down to 1 hour from seatbelts to T/O. They say it should be around 30 minutes by the time we start flying, so we're getting there.

Systems Test Complete
I passed the Systems test this morning without missing a question. We finished up for the year with an intro to the weight and balance forms. No class no duties until 3 Jan. Yay!

EPs
This morning we took the Aero final, and I passed, despite missing a couple questions. No big deal. My neighbor and I went back to our rooms to change into flightsuits, and then went to grab our g-suits and helmets from lifesupport. My sim today was on Emergency Procedures, so my instructor activated several critical emergency situations and explained all the indicators and the procedures for safely recovering. It was good to actually put the boldface into action. The muscle memory is important. I nailed most of my callouts and radio calls too, which felt good. No sim tomorrow as of now. We start Contact academics. More on that later.
