I'm 4 lessons in and in my last lesson I managed to fail to do even the simplest thing without making a complete pigs ear of it. To the extent that I detuned the radio rather than turning it off at the end of the lesson
Despite being 42 and a long time out of school, I'm in a career where I have to continually relearn stuff, and don't generally find learning a challenge. I read the lessons in the book, and it all makes absolute sense. Yet I'm doing a very good job of acting as if the entire concept of an aeroplane is new to me as soon as I get in that seat.
My flying instructor seems unconcerned, although he may just be an award-winning sufferer of fools.
I'm hoping some of you also went through a period of acting like a prize fool and might have some words of wisdom ... or at least commiseration!
