Mazzy, I noted the following point in your recent post

"As I looked down to remove my knee board temporarily, the airspeed started to bleed off. "

Do you always remove your kneeboard for landing? When I went solo first time a few weeks ago I was still having some landing issues and the kneeboard was in the way for my right hand handling flaps, carb heat, throttle etc.

So the instructor suggested I removed it and put it in the back. I did this and found it a revelation to have my right hand fully free. Two more T-And-G's and I was solo. I really found it to make an amazing difference.

Chequered - glad to hear that things are coming together!
