1 Week prior:

Instructor - So review your emergency checklists for next flight
Student - Uhh Okay...

--- In Flight ----

Instructor - What would you do right now if you had an ammeter discharge
Student - uhhh, turn the master off, turn it back on, looking for the over-voltage light and circuit breakers

Or

Windsock is as erect as a homo-erectus on a 90 degree angle,

Instructor - do we have a crosswind
Student - No...

Asking a Pitts Special to do 1 orbit to fall in behind traffic on the straight-in. He obliges, and only as a Pitts can :shock: , still manages to cut off the traffic and cause a momentary kerfuffle. I mean "c'mon man", stop showing off!

Getting the a/c ready to fly to another airport for my PPL ride wings are all frosted up at around +1 degrees. Mechanic and my instructor both say to just put hot water on the wings and it shouldn't freeze up. It does.

C'mon man.........

I sacrificed a towel and a jug of -40 bug juice so I was only an 45 minutes late for my flight test.

a jug of -40 bug juice
Not a good idea to use that on your airplane. If you do, keep it away from the plexiglas.

Get covers for your wing, tail and windshield. And, there are better homemade de-icing fluids (eg radiator fluid - ethylene glycol) if you can't thaw it out in a heated hangar. Cat owners are gonna hate you, though.

I was working in Williams Lake BC when an American single piston plane landed. Did not arrange customs or anything.
He was trying to fly 'direct' to Alaska on one tank of fuel and was surprised that it was so far between Seattle and Alaska.

A bunch of us were shaking our heads at that one.

I remember a former boss telling me that lots of Yanks were flying up in their own planes for Expo 86 in Vancouver and getting lost. No GPS back then doncha know. :P
