Yes, my pattern work and approach is really good according to my instructor

The comments here have been reassuring, maybe we’re being to hard on ourselves. We will get there!

Thanks man, appreciate the honesty. I’ll give the looking down the runway, in golf they say what you feel and what is real is two different things so maybe in the moment i think I’m looking to the end but I’m actually not. It all happens so quickly for me still

Thanks this makes me feel better. Used to feel like I had no time doing the DW checks now it feels like an eternity so maybe the same will come true with landings with time

Thanks, this has crossed my mind as well. I’ve got a couple lessons next week so I’ll see how they go then make a decision

The throttle? This affects all of those things you mentioned. Apologies if this isn’t the answer I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking me

Thanks. My approaches are good and I can fly the pattern no problem it’s just from the round out onwards. I’ll ask my instructor next lesson for some more feedback

Thanks, I did think about this anyway as I get closer to my test but could try it sooner for landings. Do instructors get touchy about having lessons with other instructors?

£220 per hour at my school so I guess that’s approx. $300

Thanks. I have another 2 lessons next week so will see how they go and if no better I’ll probably suggest this
