Runway in use: 15
Goals for this flight:
- Work on Stalls - Check, went well
 - Do a couple of steep turns - Check, sloppy
 - Touch and Goes with concentration on soft field technique - will do next time, today was no good.
 - Work on Rudder Usage - check, still needs work
 - Taxi and Rollout inputs - still needs work
 
Today's flight did not go so well.  It was much bumpier than I would have liked and the wind was quite unpredictable.  The active runway was 15 but the winds were often better for another runway.  I would rather be safe and take the active than risk causing a problem by choosing another runway when the airport is very busy.  
I did a couple of touch and goes, none of which were great.  I flew out and did a stall which was good and a steep turn which was sloppy at best.  I came back in and did a final landing and called it a day.  I wasn't really happy with my performance today, but nothing was terrible, so it was still a good day out.  I felt a bit uncomfortable behind the yoke today which hasn't happened for a while.  I need to get more time in for practice so I can always feel confident on my flights.
