Good Evening All,

We will not be doing a review and practice exam this Saturday, instead doing that on Monday, January 8th at 1830 at Simonds high School.

Only those cadets who will be writing the exam are required to attend. Please bring the items you will need to write the actual exam, including a pencil, notepad and eraser. Only power candidates need to bring a flight computer and navigation ruler.

If you are unable to attend, please let me know, and I can provide you with some practice questions to prepare with prior to the exam.
