Default RE: Flying first time

I've taught several heli pilots to fly planes.

They take to it very easily.

The biggest problems are getting them to lay off the rudder, and not flying the plane INTO the ground at landing.

They tend not to be used to glide slopes and not using the tail/rudder all the time.

Usually two flights with a buddy box and they are off on their own.
