Learning to fly takes time. You need to be able to absorb it at your pace. Osmosis?
Pushing too hard, three lessons a day is futile. You are not a machine with a positronic brain.
What is important long term is the quality. Get it right at the PPL stage, and the CPL/IR stage will be straight forward.
And probably the most important basic skill is TRIMMING, and trimming well.
Acquire this skill, and it will stay on rails. Failure to trim well ends up in a constant battle of Man v. machine.
40+ hours without first solo is a cause for concern.........
