I went up on this flight with a couple of things in mind, one to be vigilant about the "altitude creep", another to do some flap-less landings. Winds were right on the runways at HNL, so things were floaty there, and from the right 8.3 NM away at Kalaeloa (also runway 4), but not so much that there was much of a drift to counter on landing. I went to Kalaelloa first, and landing without flaps was pretty unsurprising, although I think I was fishing a little for the higher stall speed. I heard the horn at some surprisingly high numbers. After about 10 landings simply doing what Larry calls "energy management", I was pretty comfortable with it, and did forward slip on a couple, although I tended to be low enough that there wasn't much to slip. I did a full-flaps landing on the last one; I think I recalibrated myself, it was floaty.

Moved to the practice area and climbed to 2500, decided that there was nothing to do up there, really and slipped off 1000 feet to do ground reference maneuvers, while maintaining altitude.

I decided, after about an hour and a half in the air, that I wasn't going to improve anything much more today, and the things I needed to check were checked. So I called approach and went home -- the wind was right on the runway, still, I had the strangest landing, at first, I thought I was bouncing, but I just touched about 5 times, and put it down inside Delta taxiway.

All of my pre-checkride flying is done.
