Grounded Again

So I was going to fly a Cessna 172P Skyhawk for the first time today. I even got out to preflight the aircraft, but then the flight manager comes out and tells my flight instructor that I can't fly wearing shorts. And I need a second class medical (I only have a third). But the shorts were enough to ground me(aviation term for not allowed to fly). So I got to play with the new 172R's but not fly. They were cool and all, but they were on the ground.

I bet they are beautiful from the air.
