Default RE: teaching someone to fly?

well guys i guess i got one in a million kids to teach, seems he has been practicing with a 3ch electric and became pretty good, flew it till it wouldnt fly anymore, well to make a long story short his dad is friends with the guy that runs the local airport, you have to understand i live i one of the most remote areas of california near death valley, but anyway we recieved permission to use the runway to do this training, had no buddy box so i checked out the plane and tuned his os in his nexstar and i flew her to get it trimmed(nice flying plane) then took off again and got her highhhhhh and handed him the box(his mom and dad were both there ohhhhing), but this kid showed good skill right off the bat and flew it around about 15 min and then i landed it for him, andyways on the next flight he took off and flew 20 min and i landed and on the third flight he did it all, (even broke the prop) im kinda glad because he needed to be brought down a notch, but id like to thank you guys for helping me out and all
