One week without going to Son Pacs and a fast car



This week we haven’t gone to son Pacs because it was the all Saints' Day. Since I haven’t gone to Son Pacs I have been able to take more time and study module 7.

In the previous blog I explained that I was making typical donuts from these dates. In the next photo you can see the donuts.
I have to improve the form but the donuts are very good. I've also made egg custards that have come out a little different. I have to say that it's the first time I've made an egg custard. Here you have a picture.


On Monday I went with Tomeu to Manacor to test a special edition of a car. They let us drive the car for a while and explained all the special things that differentiate it from the other models. There are only 290 units of this model and each costs € 46,000. It was a very funny experience.


In Globalia Formacion we have returned to the theory classes with the instructor Arnaldo and we have just reviewed module 11.6 where the electric systems of the plane are explained. We are solving questions similar to those we will find in the module 11 exam. Even if there is a lot of time for the exam, it is good to refresh some concept.

In the workshop the instructor has inspected the turbocharger assembly and he has given us the approval. Now we are disassembling and checking the anti-ice system of the turbocommander engines.

A visit to the hangar and other places to eat

This weekend my couple and I went to eat at a buffet at the Son Pardo racecourse. It is right next to the son pacs institute. It is a buffet where we can find typical Mallorcan dishes, such as “ tumbet” which are sliced ​​vegetables such as aubergine, potato and green pepper, with tomato sauce. We also found "trampo", which is a salad of tomatoes, onions and green and red peppers, cut into very small squares. Most of the dishes in the buffet are good, I recommend the site to people who like buffets. Also this weekend I made a cheesecake with jam that was great. My partner and I like to have something sweet to eat after lunch. Right now, while I am writing the blog, I am preparing donuts, typical of this time of year. Next week I will upload photos of how the donuts have been. This week at Globalia we have continued with the hydraulic systems of the plane with Jose Miguel. In the workshop, Pere and I have finished assembling the turbochargers, we have stopped all the sc...

Car racing in the puig major and a hidden skydrol tank

This last weekend I went on an excursion to the Puig major, since this weekend there was a car race. Taking advantage of this event, the night before the race, I slept near to the village of Sóller, a small village located between mountains. Sóller seems to me a spectacular village since it is surrounded by mountains and with a special color in its houses. In addition, it has a small railway that reaches the port of Sóller. I camped near the road for the next morning to see the race from there. What impressed me most, is to see the sunrise from the mountain, with the town of Sóller just below. It was a full day that helped me to disconnect from the module 7 exam. Day 9 was my birthday and I brought cookies and croissants to class for my classmates. Upon arriving home, my partner had prepared a cake with 23 candles. The next weekend is her birthday and I will prepare some surprise ...  In theory class we have started the airplane's pneumatic system, but in practic...
