Hi Pat.
Satisfied indeed - that was quite a major moment in my life (pauses to wipe away a tear...
)
Good point about drift v yaw. When I finally hacked the yaw I found I had no brain capacity left to counteract any drift. Consequently I remember slowly drifting forward out of the hover square, over the taxiway and far away - a kind of snail's pace hover taxi - until I could cope with re-positioning us.
By the way, anyone else find themselves leaning to one side in their seat when learning to hover in a crosswing, trying desperately to counteract it without moving that damned cyclic..?
