my second lesson!

Hi everybody.

Well, it would appear I'm joining this club! After five consecutive weather cancellations, I finally got my second lesson in (the first was a jolly in Cornwall nearly a year ago).

successfully achieved: primary and secondary effects of controls

must pay more attention to: getting a feel for using the rudder to maintain balance and compensate for things inducing yaw (like power changes). I just don't "get" it yet: unlike elevator, aileron and power, it's not intuitive for me.

For the full blow-by-blow account, see the blog: http://mp-technical.com/ftd/?cat=1

cheers,
mtw
