Filing Flight Plan
Hello all, I am a Student Pilot at about 50 hours here ready to do my Night XC and then move on to my Stage II check and then Solo XC.
I am flying the Liberty XL-2 that is owned by the USAF Aero Club here in Okinawa Japan. I love this plane!
But when landing I am having some issues of rudder control in a crosswind, for example when I am on final and just about to flare I feel like I need to step on the left rudder to get the airplane straight, but my Instructor is always telling me "Right Rudder, Right Rudder" and of course he is usually correct. I am not sure what I am doing wrong that my perspective is skewed to "think" I need left rudder. I have many landing under my belt at this point but this I feel like I don't know what I am doing wrong at this point. Any tips would be appreciated.
