Well, first of all, there is no time limit regarding participation in this forum. People come and go and return as they feel the need, sometimes absent for a couple of years or more. No matter. We're always here.

And -- glad you're back!

Today is Saturday, and you said that you're leaving Tuesday. If you want to call Capt. Tom and talk about it, there's plenty of time. In fact, I would suggest that. (Phone number is listed elsewhere on this website.)

Having Mark with you might help some. As a pilot, he can be helpful in explaining sights, sounds, etc.

Cheers.

Steve

P.S. Congrats on attaining your Master's!

That's quite an accomplishment and represents lots of hard work.
You deserve a this trip!

You can expect some anticipatory anxiety and it may come and go during the time before your flight. If you've done SOAR you know that what you've learned really kicks in after you meet the captain and get on your way. I had four flights last month and experienced quite a bit of anxiety before each flight. But the flights themselves were great, absolutely no problems. Try the 5-4-3-2-1 exercise which can help reduce the anxiety.

The anticipatory anxiety is uncomfortable but it has no effect on the safety of your flight. You can get through it and have a successful trip. You did it last year and can do it again. Have a great time.
