I resumed last month after a 25 year lapse. Now many may find this hard to believe, but the club I was in at that time did not have yaw strings (just slip-skid balls); so, I am spending considerable time working out how to keep the string pointed back at all times
It's generally a different instructor every time and in several aspects what one instructor beats you over the head for is considerably different from what another instructor expects.
Also there have been quite a few changes to the instruction syllabus in the last 25 years; so, what was expected then may be frowned upon today
The upshot is that it would not hurt to review the club's student manual.
