Line Up and Wait
Was a little concerned/cautious because of not knowing the guy, wondering what kind of pilot he was, did he fly safe, etc. Both of us have just over 80 hours total. Turns out he's a lot like me, and we split a 2-hour flight with each of us taking a leg under the hood. Best thing about it was the safety pilot doing the "teaching" to the person under the hood which, to me, is one of the best ways to learn and have stuff sink in. Me telling him to vector to a heading, climb/descend to a heading, tune the radio to xxx.xx, ooops...watch your altitude, "might have to overcook this turn a little to intercept the radial", etc. were all just as helpful for ME in the learning process.
Anyway, just rambling about a successful IFR training flight and the cool feeling of having met and flown with another IFR student...
