Default RE: Are you Self-Taught or Buddy Box ?

Buddy Box. One area where this really helped was getting to know a qualified instructor. There were times when I wasn't being trained but something bad would happen, and he was there to help me land safely (like when my canopy blew off and was dangling by a wire behind the plane - it was moving around, so slowing down different parts of the plane; it was rolling, diving, climbing, etc. and Tony was there to tell me how to bring it in safely).
