Test completed!
Sunday morning consisted of a normal theory lesson. We learned how to use the flight computer to calculate, and convert, things like fuel consumption, drift, altitudes, temperatures and such. Really fun actually (and very very very useful). I haven’t done so much math in one day since high school. The good old grays got some good exercise! 
And yes! We finally had the progress test this Sunday. I was actually surprised that it only consisted of 20 questions from all different areas. I imagined that it would be three or four parts with 20 questions each. The purpose of the test is (I’m guessing) to check your knowledge and get the chance to see what one needs to study more, but that will be hard with so few questions. Anyway, I think I only got one or two errors. I reckon it was one regarding trim rudders. Got an email from J-O and everything seems ok to start doing some actual flying! As soon as I get my student pilot license…which…is not anywhere near aqquired. Because today I finally got an appointment for my medical exam. 26th of march. So it’s at least another three weeks worth of waiting. 
Some good news instead though, I bought a used (allthough brand new) headset. Peltor Aviation 8006 for 1000SEK (aprx €110). Which is a bargain if anything!
