Default RE: Callers and coaching

On the basis that I know the schedule, I tend to tune out the manouver call, unless I need the reminder. I'm far more keen on hearing the count down to centre as I approach it each time, that helps me more (plus warnings if I'm getting nearer the ends).

In terms of coaching I have found you need both a caller and a coach. The caller takes their eye off your plane for significant parts of the flight, and is concentrating on what is happening. The coach is separate from that and can concentrate on the flying. You don't need much of this to get an improvement
