Guys, on the other hand, if he is a decent helicopter model pilot, it might not be too bad. I''ve transitioned two of them to fixed wing and both were actually good to go on the first flight. And both understood the value of my staying on the buddy box for awhile as they basically got the feel on landings and takeoffs. And one of them brought out a big Katana as his trainer. And had no problems with it. It''s just about the absolute opposite of a good trainer too.
