KAMG

Right then...I bit the bullet and will be joined by the weekend then doing the IDCAM next weekend (11/03/06)
I'm really looking forward to it after speaking to some of the guys yesterday. Will also be doing the next machine control day. Sveedy, have you done the MC day yet? Sounds like the old cbt/das intensified?

Yay - I'm on that MCD too - 1 April. Missed the last one of 2005. I need that - I have no trouble at slow speeds on the road but when focusing on slow speed for any test it goes to pot, and I've never cracked the U-turn. Enjoy the IDCAM - got the classroom stuff in the morning (with some interesting info.) then after lunch you'll go out with an observer and they'll watch you. Best advice I can give is to ride as if they're not there, so they can see everything. They'd rather see you ride like a nutter (if that's how someone rides normally) so that they can give you real advice. I tried to ride how I thought I should ride for the first few times and they can spot it a mile off. They're a friendly bunch of guys... welcome!

Thanks very much...I'm looking forward to both those days. I have yet to properly master the SV under slow control...managed the ER 5 within a couple of hours

Well, did the IDCAM, loved it! Except fot the sleet and snow Now looking forward to my observed runs and the MCD on 1 April
