After the first spin and stall lesson I spent the whole week going through the lesson in the flying book, talking to pilots and generally boring everybody with my questions. I went through each step in my head,
I was at the flying school at 6.30am on Sunday, handed over my car keys (you give them your car keys, they give you the keys to the plane. You bring it back you get your car back) did the pre-flight checks and headed out to the GFA.
We told everyone where we were, checked for vultures, other aircraft, altitude and got started. My palms were already sweaty. Oscar demonstrated. Twice. With my heart racing I took the controls and started the exercise. Up, stall warning, wing drop, correct. Twice.
