Line Up and Wait
Went through the whole "body tells me something different than the gauges" exercise. Reinforced that flying the gauges is sometimes an uncomfortable effort when your body is giving you opposing thoughts. Shot two approaches. The 650 isn't difficult, but different than the 430 that I've had up until now so it added even more overhead to an already-busy first time with IFR approaches. Luckily my CFI handled some of the radio work while I fought with heading/altitude/radio work/trying to understand the procedure/holds/entries/etc.
Drank through the proverbial fire hose, but it was great to start the IFR training and put it in the logbook. Best part was him saying "okay, you can look now" and having the runway (somewhat) right in front of me. Yikes! Time to get my head in VFR-mode and land the plane!
