Agricultural ...

I think he meant i looked at times like i was driving a tractor and not flying a plane. He commented that i should " let go " of the plane more. He is an FTE instructor who has a reputation for telling the truth , it was that and i have to be honest and say theres nothing in it that i dont agree with. I believe that were i to continue to fly the same way i would have problems " if " i managed to get my hands on something bigger. Possibly some of the habits i have would go away with time , but i dont think flying is something that i can teach myself so am keen to be funnelled into a bit more finess . I believe it possible to progress onwards and have problems later on with more engrained habits being harder to break or reverting to them when under pressure. I do agree that I deserve my PPL and provided i maintain a certain attitude ill be safe but i want to as i said be a good pilot and this now means addressing the feedback early ?

The tail dragger idea sound interesting to me
