Did my first student soaring lesson this morning. (On a simulator, cloud ceiling was too low for a real flight.) I think it went really well! As an R/C pilot I need to use my feet now instead of my thumbs to coordinate a turn, but I think I’m getting the feel for it. Did a handful of mediocre landing patterns, but apparently my aero-tow went well. Felt just like chasing other R/C planes while using video (FPV) goggles, which I’ve done a lot of. :)
