Gliding for hour building
I am partiuclarly interested in this thread, as I used to go gliding up at Aboyne in bonny Deeside. I am currently finishing off my PPL and had been told many a time that co-ordnation of rudder and nice co-ordinated turns is far better in glider pilots than powered for the same hours. So, I was thinking, if 30 hours can go towards CPL hour building, and according to my schools CFI "students on the CPL don't use the rudder enough and are not accurate enough with turns" then would it be an idea to do 30 hours gliding to jazz up the old rudder control and turn co-ordination?
For me, i'd have to do a fair bit of dual i would think. But, at approx 30quid to get a good hour, compared with 110 powered, even the cost would be a benefit. Would it be worth doing? Or would the hours be more beneficial powered?
Any thoughts folks?
