Static, the answer is no because we havent got onto circuits yet, we're just on slow flight. Im tempted to agree with you seeing as you've had so much expierience in jets and so much military flying but when you start talking about 3.25 degrees it makes me angry. I mean 3.25 degrees! Who can judge to .25 of a degree? Especially in a Moth with no artificial horizon! Theres nothing wrong with having a slowish turn but does it really matter if its 2 or 3 or 4 degrees as long as it gets you onto finals? Seems like a bit of an unnecessary skill for a light aircraft pilot to have.
