June 3/16 pm – Jeff refresher training.

Jeff has finished his license early Sep 2015 and this was first time since he decided to fly again.

It was very good idea to book a refresher session with me as Jeff has forgotten bunch of things. The kiting came right back but the hook up did not – he was going to fly with main shoulder straps very loose and that could couse bad torque turn.

Also Jeff completely forgot how to turn into reverse after landing – this can cause pilot to stumble backwards and fall on the motor (we call it a “turtle”) usually causing some damage to prop or cage or both. It got me bit excited as you can hear in one of the videos. Good training session, 3 flights – wind did complete 180 turn on us diring second flight and I had to remind Jeff 3 times not to land down wind.

Even though Jeff was 100 % proficient in Sep it was essential for him to get this refresher – several mistakes were cough by me that would otherwise go unchecked.
