RE: R U SELF taught or INSTRUCTOR taught?
Self taught with a GWS Slowstick. But when I moved to glow and realized how much faster and heavier the planes are, I went with an instructor. My instructor also happens to own the LHS so good advice is just a call or 1/2 mile drive away. Seen one or two guys try self teaching themselves at the field and the results were usually pretty ugly!
