Good point! I can't argue with that...
I "go around" sometimes, myself, but usually due to height/speed issues, not alignment
New pilots probably do have their hands full for a while just concentrating on aileron, elevator and throttle control.
Definitely agree with that. I just believe that rudder control is one
of the things
a good instructor will introduce as training progresses beyond "the basics".
