Good Morning Lu,
Gin clear skie,s with us here in the Uk at the mo, on my first training flight my Lady CFi fully briefed me on the ground what she was about to show me( in the air that is) at initial start and prep for t/o she was talking thru everything, into flight she demo'd l/h and r/h turns, t/rotor movements to put the ball in the center, and up/down attitude with the cyclic, then after that which had taken up about 10/15 mins, I was asked to hold the cyclic gently and feel what the R22 felt like as she released her grip on the controls , cyclic was the only control that I held until she felt that I understood how little movement was needed to move the craft a lot, then she explained more about the collective and with me following thru showed me the reponces felt in the a/c by lowering and raising the lever, this seems to have been a lot more gentle than some guys had with male CFi's
Nuff for now
Regards
Peter R-B
