| Welcome to Nethers, I also fly with Phoenix. Touch and goes at Netherthorpe can be tricky but i'm sure you'll be given control of the aircraft throughout in no time. You'll be expected to do one on your skills test with Christine, the CFI from Sheffield aero club. When I did mine for the skills test I was shown a good technique by Christine whereby using a flapless approach onto 06, a low/shallow glide path and higher approach speed and flying the aircraft onto the runway you get a good platform for an effective touch and go. Talk to your instructor/s, they're all fantastic and they'll put your mind at rest aswell as giving you plenty of pointers. |
