It's official...

Booked two hours on the 172 today; Sunday, 4PM . The flight portion of the BFR should go well- not counting at all on FS9 time to help me (so very different), but it can't hurt. The CFI said he just wanted to see some maneuvers, 3 good landings, and evidence I can tune and ID a VOR then find out what radial I'm on. Piece of cake. Even if he's gaslighting me and has plans to put me through Flight-Review Hell I think I'll be OK. I've got over 100 hours in C172s, so I'll at least be able to handle the plane without much mental stress.
 Just got to remember to retract flaps on climbout and make clearing turns before maneuvers...

Linden, eh? Howdy, neighbor! I live in Newark...
You mean N-number? Not sure, actually- Sunday will be my first time in this plane (rental); the airport is 47N. Flight school is Millstone...
 Thought about renting at Linden, but last time I checked there, the rates seemed pretty high. Too bad- I live very close to that airport...
