I feel so rusty.

I had N73455 scheduled for 4:30 pm on Sunday and wouldn't you know it. A weather forecast that went from cloudy but no rain on Wednesday to IFR conditions on Sunday. I went out to Flight 101 anyways, in the hope that the rain would clear and the ceilings would go up but no luck. I've got a flight scheduled for Saturday at 12 pm and hopefully the weather will cooperate. The long range forecast is calling for a 30 percent chance of either rain or snow with a high temperature of 40 F. Winter is sure early this year. At least this will start to get me adapted to training in cold temperatures. I don't think I'll see my instructor opening up the window because she's too warm when we were flying previously. I did get homework though, even though we didn't fly. I've got a 4 page aircraft checkout and pre-solo test to complete. It covers the basics. Although there are some things that I haven't learned from my instructor. Like what happens when we're in the pattern flying VFR and the field goes IFR. That topic hasn't been covered yet. Another topic is requirements for entering different types of airspace.
