"Time felt as if it had stopped, and everything fell silent as my internal instructor reminded me I had a choice. I could either choose the chaos of fear or the strength within calm. Almost forcing myself, I sorted out my emotions and picked where I focused. As a result, the engine’s sound started to fill my tiny cockpit, flight instruments almost pointed to where they needed to be, and I instinctively knew what to do to complete my solo flight successfully. I was only twenty-four years old.
An experienced pilot would refer to my moment of intense focus as “winding the clock.” I’ve always known the phrase but didn’t fully understand the meaning until that day. The term comes from an old military flight training technique in which pilots train for emergencies in simulated cockpits with fake switches and dials. The trainee received a reminder to wind the fake dashboard clock to channel any nervous energy with every incorrect emergency response. It is a phrase that represents that moment in time between stimulus and response."
