    My Discovery Flight, and a bazillion questions.

    Ouch @Dry Creek. I'm sorry your discovery flight had to be that way. I would definitely agree with the consensus here. That instructor is not worth his salt. It's really important to make habits of safety from the very beginning of training. An instructor who doesn't encourage and foster that...

    First few hours: How do I know I'm doing okay?

    To finish up primary training, I recently transitioned from a Cub with a trim roller handle to C150 with a trim wheel. The Cub's trim handle became second nature.
