Thanks, useful summary of the lessons. I would actually love to do some of these exercises solo, I would probably be more conservative but I think it would be valuable to know that there is no-one to bale me out if I mess it up. Is that permitted/done ? After all, if all goes well in a few weeks, I will be out there alone anyway and I don't want to be afraid to keep working on these key skills.

That was certainly my understanding until this incident, so I was troubled to be told to add some flap when I thought we were about to
land crash short, and there was not a snowball's chance in hell of landing too long, which is why I came here for a sanity check!
