I can fly Racetrack patterns, fig 8s, and take off with no loss of altitude in turns. Haven't landed yet, trees on on left side of field scare me at this age of 63. No guts! Nose down on approach with left hand turn and power back still bother me quite a bit and I'm still on buddy box and have instructors.

I just ( No1 ) wanted a fall back position to remove my reluctance on approach and ( No2 ) every once in a while I get a little out of sorts, especially in Fall Winds. I recover OK but thought it would eliminate my conservative attitude.

Also, when I do solo I want to go to a PT19 as my next plane for a tail dragger. Thought a Co-Pilot would help the transition.
