how long till solo after landing?
we have a club poficienty test, which is loosely bassed on the BMFA A test, my student now gos all on his own with no lead, but i stand by him which is the club rule till you pass the test, a bit more stick time and he'll be there.
he needs to get a bit more precise in circuits and staying at one height, but i also feel hes just not had enough experiance of uneventful flights to leave alone. dont want a wing to fall off or anything, but he had an unexpect dead stick today, didnt go the right way, long walk, next time he'll do better, stuff like that.
then i say hes ready.
when i was taught i had to do ten take offs and landings on the patch in a row, then i went solo, hard, but dosnt teach much in the way of airmanship.
