Cheers, Mike.

I agree with the time needed to consolidate knowledge. A week seems to be enough time to really get to grips with the previous lesson’s knowledge and before you know it, it’s the weekend again!

One instructor gave me good advice – when you’ve not got a lesson, come down to the airfield and sit in an aircraft that’s not flying to go through the drills – it doesn’t cost you anything and you get hands on experience. It DOES depend on how far you live from the airfield though – you’re right!!

I think I’ve got those crosswinds to look forward to…….!
