I went to Raglands website and his method makes a lot of sense. I might practice flying that way and see if I can use it to teach.

I see several other "instructors" at the field with students on buddy cords for what seems a VERY long time, at 4 or 5 dollars a lesson I think they are not motivated to let them solo. I don't charge and just want them to learn enough to move on and have fun.
