3 up and 3 down is either the end of an inning, or enough takeoffs and landings to be current to carry passengers.
So I did 6.
It was a beautiful day to fly today, with a negligible crosswind of 10 knots from 060-080 using Runway 9L. A nice cool and sunny day with great performance from the Archer.
I did touch-n-goes rather than full stop landings.
I was the only one in the pattern so I had no delays. and could get the touch-n-goes in quickly.
Tower on occasion had me extend my upwind for spacing for other arriving aircraft which was fine. Kinda neat to know why he would extend based on the other radio traffic.
The first pattern wasn't perfect, but I got it dialed in more and more with each pattern. I soon had it right where I wanted it performance-wise and soon was right on the numbers.
It was great to shake the rust off and get back in the air.
That's 6 landings and 0.7 to start off the flying season.

Well done, currency IS important!
Old NFO: Thanks, it was good to fly again after a very long run of lousy flying weather.
