We're pretty much done with Phase I but it's not "official" until Monday. We all showed up at our Phase II flight room on the flightline today at 0800 and studied for our sims and did publications updates to all our pubs. My sim didn't brief until 1100, so I got all my pubs up to date and studied a bit.
The sim was another Emergency Procedure (EP) ride, so it was pretty much one malfunction after another. I did have a good time flying around when I wasn't taking care of EP's though. The only bad thing about EP sims is you have to wear your full g-suit, harness, helmet, mask, etc... and it gets a bit hot after a while. After that I went back to the flight room and studied a bit more. We also put together a "practice" formal brief and gave it to one of the IPs. The formal brief is given every morning, there is very specific information which must given during it, and everyone must sit at attention during it. Not too hard once you get used to it, you'll have to do them at IFS when you go.
We were done by 1700, then went to to class 08-13s track select. They only got 2 T-38s!!! Crazy...
Anyway, I'm on the flight schedule for Monday for my Dollar Ride... yeah!! I'll be taking off for the first time in a T-6 at 0848 Monday morning, so steer clear of Enid if you're flying, the Riddller will be in the air!!
