Start 8am, flight then ground instruction.
Break for lunch and another flight in the afternoon and you’ll be home by 4pm.
Next day one flight.
Thats 3 flights in two days off with plenty of recreational and study time remaining.
Certain things you can learn by yourself while other things need to be explained to you for you to fully understand it.
I’ve never had a student teach themselves the aerodynamics of a steep turn or a stall.
If at all possible avoid booking lessons prior to or after work.
You’ll be preoccupied with your job at hand at least partially or mentally tired and stressed as a result of it.
Neither creates an ideal environment to learn.
Wake up and flying is the only thing on your mind for that day.
