once the skills test has been passed, we very rarely get to fly with our ex-students as they want to be rid of us and get some 'freedom.'
I am sure you are right. But am I the only one who in the runup to the skills test is “slamming on the brakes” as it were (helped by the Wx at the moment) realizing that innocent-sounding enquiries from the RHS such as “What heading are we flying?”, “What speed did you say?” and other such “reassurances” will be a thing of the past once the much coveted PPL has been obtained.
