Hello-

I was just looking for some advice and suggestions regarding switching
flight schools. I have about 77 hours in and there are still many
basics that I do not quite have down. I think its a combination of
feeling nervous and being overly psyched out by my initial instructors
approach to training.

For example..for the majority of my training I would be doing my
climbs cruises without him consistantely forcing me to read the
checklist. So that habit never developed. No Flaps landings, I have
not learned until about 60 hours in training. Around hour 70, the
instructor left and found a new job. Lastly, we rarely debriefed
after each flight.

I do not want to say its all his fault....though I would think I
should feel some confidence at this stage in my training. Any
suggestions would be helpful or similiar experiences.


Hard to know unless you're there in the cockpit watching, but the
debrief thing sounds not so good in particular. Ask around.... There's
bound to be a good one somewhere nearby.
