Quick question re total inability to turn
Hi folks,
One (hopefully quick) question.
I had a lesson in a PA28 yesterday and it was my first after a ‘break’ of 18 years. (I previously had 10 hours in a 172).
We tried normal turns and mine were pretty shocking. It actually got a little heated in the cockpit. I’m 6’ and couldn’t see the engine cowling which I think may be partly responsible. Please could someone describe in simple terms what I should look for outside the window in a turn to the left? E.g. should the engine cowling be visible and if so should it be on, above or below the horizon? Is the cowling even the point of reference? I realise this may be a thick as a whale omelette question but I couldn’t get it yesterday and I've looked online in vain.
Thank you
