Last night was my first lesson on Slow Flight (Ex10a). It looked like a really boring lesson during briefing but proved to be quite tough and actually very very scary.
After the lesson the examiner explained that being on the
wrong side of the drag curve was the main cause of most PPL accidents and I could really see why!
The problem for me was the temptation to pull back when the nose drops, absolute disaster when approaching the stall!
I have a lot more work to do on this side of things and It looks like it's well needed in light of recent accidents. The news has hit me quite hard as my own first solo is only a few weeks from now.
