My oldest has quite a bit of time in the RV over the past 9 years, problem is it’s mostly been point to point XC. She can push the buttons, talk on the radio and hold alt/heading pretty darn good.
High schoolers’ and working dads are pretty busy but we finally settled on Wednesday evenings to prioritize a flight lesson, we’re currently several lessons in. Working on getting access to a traditional trainer at some point but for now the RV can spoil her.
She is NOT a fan of stalls, the questions came up last lesson so I decided it was a good time to try and acclimate her a bit. I used about 20-25% power for a less aggressive power on stall scenario, I demonstrated a couple and gave her the controls. Really wish I woulda captured her first couple reactions but we were busy, learning is occurring……..
