We teamed up at 7 this morning, all slightly sleepdeprived but eager to start. We have worked on emergency procedures and different scenarios and situations that may occur - all day. In fact, we have been at it for 14 hours nonstop (except for a few 5 min breaks and a lunch break). Our brains have completely shut down due to information overload and drilling of procedures. So most likely I have no idea what I am writing this very minute. For all I know I might already be asleep. Good thing is, we all passed our practical and theoretical exam today. So tomorrow we are ready for the level 1 jump. Which is a crazy idea, but also fantastic. Most likely we will do emergency procedures all night in our sleep. The only think running through my mind now are push, reach, pull, fly/no fly, look, release, release, fly and about twenty other commando words.
I came to think about usabiliy in all this - the book called "Don't make me think!" Some of the point to all this work we did today was exactly that - do not think, but act. Obviously some thinking is always good, but the commandoes and responses needs to become instinct, not thought. Something to think about. Okay, you get the picture...we are way to knackered to write anything that would make sense now. So off to bed now. Will write more tomorrow. PS! We are very happy campers :)
