Bump

From: ASH To: ASH
Hours: 1.0
Type: Cessna Skyhawk C-172R
Number: N671DW
CFI: Aaron Hittie
Description: On a very windy day, we went around the pattern seven times. It was rather windy so it took me a while to find the proper crab angle to stay straight. I was constantly overshooting my turns but I managed to get back on the glide path each time. But the flare was messed up. I'd hold in the power too long, according to Hittie, and I'd start too high. I'd often hit with a bump. We just have to work on the flare a bit and we'll be good to go.

Logged: 31.9 hours, 96 landings
