Default RE: On my first flight I...

my first flight was an accident. my first plane was a tranner but i never got to fly it(dad crashed it madden flight) my second was a big stick and my dad was going to teach me how to fly BUT he decided it would be better to teach me to taxi first so he gave me the radio with no buddy box and sad try taxing around some and hold up elevator while doing it and he walked back to the truck and i started taxing it around some and i was going down the runway going with the wind and got going pretty fast i turned around and started going into the wind AT THE SAME SPEED next thing i know the plane is in the air heading straight for me. So i didn't know what to do so i duck out the way and when i turned around the plane was heading in for a one point landing and i pulled full up elevator and the plane landed PERFECTLY turns out I'm a natural when my dad got me in the air with the box he only had to take over once. When he first gave me the controls i over controlled it (the throws were set at max) but after that i did fine
