I booked Unal for a flight today. He seems really good, so I think I’ll stick with him.
He showed me how to do a walkaround for a 150, and then we went for a flight to the practice area (roughly between Constance Lake and Constance Bay) and practiced everything we had gone over on the ground. Straight and level flight, climbing/descending, and climbing/descending turns were the main parts of the lesson. The flight lasted 1.3 hours. The only thing I regret was not having gloves; it was COLD during the walkaround! Fortunately this plane had heat.
Unal said overall I did well, but that I had to look outside more, rather than at the gauges.
That reminds me of when I was taking driving lessons – the instructor had issues with my reading my homework while driving. Like maybe it was time for him to take a pill!? What was I supposed to do? There was so much and this is the age of multitasking!
