and task management during and after flight.

due to weather over MUE.  Traffic pattern practice and Airport familiarization at Hilo 
airport. Good prep for solo xc flight. conducted ETA check and learned more about
local landmarks and Island traffic advisory procedures.  Improved handling of aircraft
trim skills and overall flying and approach, landing skills. Also learned about 
scanning for traffic especially around busy airports.. ie Speed Buggy head on pass!
