This is part three of what was a total of almost 2 hours of flying. Since I wanted to include as much as possible I decided to break it into parts. The stage check is a in air exam (similar to a check ride) performed by a flight instructor to insure that you are progressing. For me its also a per-requsite before Im allowed to make my two final cross country flights in order to meet all the requirements for a private pilot license.
Ugh I always get Short Field and Soft Field stuff mixed up haha

Yeah, short, soft they blend into each other on your primary training. I remember my biggest problem was to imagine the 50' obstacle to be able to say "there we are clear and now going down. Until later I figure to pick a landmark and make that the 50' so as soon as I was over it "call clear of obstacle" but that is hard to visualize. Great job on the short landing. Hey make the CFI earn the money, even if he has to repeat everything. nailed that soft landing too. congrats
