Filing Flight Plan
I am working on my PPL, two months and 12 hours or so in, and I feel like I'll never master stalls. I am almost to the point of giving up I am so frustrated with them. Power off stalls are looking pretty good but I always screw up power on stalls. I'm having a hard time holding a heading in the power on stall. My instructor said I almost put us in a spin the last time we did one. Everytime I do one the plane yaws and rolls to the right. We're going to work on them again next week but I'm so nervous about it and screwing them up again that I don't know how I can enjoy the flight, I'm already dreading it to be honest.
I keep telling myself that GA and flying isn't about going out and doing stalls every flight. If I can just master them we can move on and keep my eye on the big picture I'll get there.
But then I started thinking about all the other stalls that I haven't even touched yet, cross controlled, turning, accelerated, etc and I just find myself thinking I cant even do power on stalls there is no way I can do the other ones.
I guess what I'm asking is, is it normal hitting a wall in my training and feeling overwhelmed before I'm even doing landings on my own? Am I not cut out for this? I want this and I try to keep my eye on the big picture but if I'm not cut out for this I'd rather cut my losses now rather than $5k and 15 lessons down the line.
Thanks for any input.
