Default RE: Disconect allerions on a trainer 40 ?

I will tell you that using rudder only for your turns will not let you get into trouble nearly as fast. I was working with a beginner once who was over rolling his turns (plane looked like a pylon racer at 30 mph!) and I had him switch to using the rudder only to initiate the turn and the use the ailerons to roll out. Within one training session he was making smooth turns and I didn't have to take it from him a single time after he switched. Then he went back to using the ailerons to initiate the turn and did well because he had a mental picture of how much roll it takes to get the plane to come around.
