I am lucky enough to have found a club which has instructors available almost every day. BUT..this means that I have no single person that I can call, 'My instructor'. I have two with whom I have spent the most time, and one who has given me the option of calling 12 hrs in advance for a lesson, BUT.............

I have been up with five different instructors. I'm sure they talk, but there is no coordinated discussion of a student's progress, as far as I know.

I have decided not to ask for more help. I appreciate the time they spend with me and I will not ask for more effort from these volunteers. I cannot believe how much they do for we newbies. I figure that I should be responsible for tracking my own progress and informing my instructors during each lesson.

My questions are:

1) Are there any training guides available for new students?

2) How can I track my progress without imposing more upon the people who are nice enough to help me?

3) Should I find one or two instructors with whom I feel comfortable and just fly with them?

I can take off and make my way around, but landing is still just a dream. The simulator is helping with the controls, but I need real feedback, and an empirical measure of my progress.

Thanks!!
