I give flight training . But look where I am at . It is hard to get a instructor to help you when the weather is so nice . They would rather crash their own plane rather than YOURS. I love to give instruction but most people thin I am to old.
If you can not get a instructor to help you the only other way is a sim. Practice every thing on it till it gets borring, then go back and do it again. When you crash on a sim and you feel like you crashed the real thing you are ready to fly. PRACTICE PRACTICE.
Don't give up have been flying for 55years and love it . Next to wife 46years.
