i dont actually get lost its just that the way i get back on track is called crawling and thats not allowed in the skills test. guess i have got bad habits before i am qualified!!

the only problem i have got is knowing the correct or approved method to use. i dont tend to use the 1 in 60 rule cause it usually takes me ages to work out how many degrees i should correct.

how about, noting how long you have been flying off track and then doubling that degree to the opposite direction for that amount of time.

eg
hdg should be 360 but have flown 004 for 3mins, therefore fly 356 for 3 mins. that allowed?
