Default RE: New Tower Trainer


ORIGINAL: chopper man

Well I haven't flown the Tower trainer that often, but I was able to get some good stick time today. Started trying some new things although I'm not really sure what I should try and not try. Don't want to get in over my head[X(] An suggestion would be appreciated. Straight and level is boring

You can "try" almost anything you want. The most important thing to remember is that ALTITUDE is your friend. Get up a bit higher (3 mistakes high) and attempt a maneuver. This should give you plenty of room to recover control if something goes wrong. If you end up diving , reduce power. No sense hurrying into the ground. If you are going to try ANYTHING that really concerns you, get out the buddy cord again. Your instructor will be glad to help. Don't try to group a bunch of new things all at once. Do one, recover, do another, recover, etc.
