I am cool as a cucumber during take offs and landings (the hard part), but while I am flying my hands are shaking so bad I could thread a sewing machine while it is running. I have only been soloing for a couple weeks. Give me some suggestions on how to ''shake'' the shakes. Thanks.
Think you might be okay when you are concentrating hard (during takeoff and landing, when you are really focused); but get nervous when your mind has a bit of time to wander and think about other matters? Concentration gets better as you go along; but you can force yourself to refocus and concentrate, as well. When you start getting nervous, tell yourself to "Concentrate". Thanks; Ernie P.
