Well I promised you all an update after today's lesson
It was
amazing
So different from last time. I was in total control of that plane. The ciruit was spot on , altitude maintained beautifully, circuit flown square, and it was FUN!!!!
my instructor said I showed "amazing resource management" in the cockpit. I knew what tools I had available to me and used them appropriately. I corrected fror the calm conditions by knowing what that'd do to my descent rate. When they sent me out on long final, I used my flaps at the right time instead of coming in too low. I realised that I had a longer time to drop the altitude.
The landings are improving. I actually believe that now. I ballooned on a couple of them , but now I am confident that I can SEE and FEEL what I did wrong. I don't know if this sounds bizarre but the landings aren't coming as a suprise to me anymore
Guess I'm back on the upward curve.
Appreciate the suggestions. My instructor helped a lot by showing me a wheelie down the runway to demonstrate what the nose up attitude should look like!
That was cool
Its also good that this thread got to three pages before we started discussing breasts.
At the start of my training I selected the sturdiest sports bra possible after discussing the issue with another girl at ground school we decided that
" our landings were the only thing we wanted to worry about bouncing!"
Safe flying all
