Been there instructor got out & said OK do a circuit or two, I now realised he was barking, letting me loose with £ 100+k machine, went & hovered & did spot turns for what seemed like ages, radio call G**** do the circuits or you will have to re fuel!! or something like that. did circuit the feeling on landing was relief.
On the X country I kept thinking what am I doing here, as the way points passed I relaxed slightly, then it was time to land again still got it back in one piece.
I think worry is good stops you becoming over confident.
With 2 hours a month half the flight is a re-learning curve.
