Another failure Plan...
After so many weeks of waiting for a good weather and good time to goto Friday Harbor, finally we decided to go today. I had the flight reserved for the whole of afternoon. We reached the field at around 3 pm. I had booked a C-172 , but this one is very Old and seats are torn. I even saw some breakages in the elevator. And the weather was awesome. The skies were clear and Sunny and Not windy. Jerry and Bala helped me out in Preflight check. Then we got the clearance and we are on the run way taking off towards south. Damn, even in full power, the flight doesn't cross 2200 RPM.As soon as i took off, i turned downwind and requested the tower for a full stop. Tower says, that i am barely readable. I think my radio isnt working well either. Crap!!! After i landed, i called up John Laporta , my instructor. He says the plane never goes to the full power or atleast doenst show more than 2200 RPM. What??? Well, so now i decided i am going to change the club. I am going to find a better club with better fleet though it costs me more.
