How to stay level and keep your altitude? Practise, listen (to engine sound), get used to doing several things at once, practise some more. Above all know it can be done. and it can. If I can do it in an R22, then you can do it in a f/w aircraft.

For some reason I like to fly as high as possible in a f/w aircraft, and as low as possible in a helicopter. Aside from safety, legality, etc, that's just what feels right. Does anyone else find this?
