Default Open Discussion; Creating XC pilots

Instructors can have a lot to do with a new pilot developing a fear of XC in that even if they aren't overtly hostile to XC, they convey their own fears of XC in many subtle ways such as tone of voice, body language, or just the way a training syllabus is presented. Primacy embeds this fear in students


We've seen this with some of our local instructors.

Another issue that I think is subtly at-play: in the Club environment where instruction is already slow, students may naturally make the assumption that XC training - being an "advanced" topic - is going to be even slower than primary training was.
