Well, damn me - Sternone recounts an aspect of his training which has genuinely given him an insight into the the most interesting aspect of flying - aerobatics - and instantly a bunch of Grumpy Old Instructors jump down his throat.
No bloody wonder so many PPLs give up immediately post grant of license and a year spent paying £300 for a burger an hour's flying away every other weekend.
Sternone mate: suggest you reward yourself; after every 10 hours training of your PPL, book an aeros training sortie in something fruity with an aerobatic instructor, to remind you why you're doing all of this dry-as-dust straight-and-level stuff.
