RE: One Week to Solo video
I am glad to see someone suggested a simulator. Instructors work, videos work, but I taught myself how to fly with the G2 sim last year. I got to the point where I would use the trainer, allow the throttle to be on for 4-5 sec and the challenge was to swing it back around and land deadstick. I learned how to hover with a heli on there first as well. The real deal was a cinch after seat time with a sim. Either way you just gotta go out and do it. After if you dork the plane on a sim you just hit reset and you are back flying. I would just hate to see you discouraged from a wreck.
But also buy his video and if you still need one on one instruction. Too much information can never hurt!
good luck
