Maybe I should just jump to the end of a post, check for the "I'm Dripping Wet Behind The Ears" clause and simply move on.

Geepers. What a circus.

I don't think the CFI would agree with you. But, you're entitled to your opinion - no matter how hollow, empty and void of reason it may be. Try actually reading the Title of the OP, that might help.

actually I find connection between scuba diving experience and flying. Instruments / different milieu than "on earth" (mean underwater - up in the sky) / in these situations you need to concentrate on that one thing... maybe its all for technical sports.... and with experience you learn to handle a lot of things parallel.

....just to complete my other answer...
I think u need to learn for other people's mistakes not only from your own.
Never cut edges. Never. Ever.
Don't let other people to rush, or push u into things. Like something you are not ready for.

During training also I think most of the people can reach that lever, where they are more brave than experienced. Keep an eye on this, as my FI said so.

I'm trying to get ahead of the power curve here. I have no intention of purposely taking anything for granted at the start of my flight training. However, I'm sure others felt that way and ended up taking something for granted by omission that cost them re-training or worse later on in their personal flying careers. I'm looking to mitigate risk wherever and whenever I can. This is one approach to doing that.

Is there anything you can think of that you took for granted at the start of your flight training that you later wished you had caught earlier, corrected and learned the right way or did more efficiently before you get yourself into trouble, or found yourself needing to re-train or re-learn something you thought you knew cold?

Or, said another way - what are the top five (5) things you wish you could have done different in your initial flight training (Private and/or Instrument)?

Anything you have to offer here will help. Thanks!

You probably thought this was only about going single pilot in a VLJ. You could be very wrong about that. The things you don't yet understand.
Can’t wait...can barely stand the suspense...



I could give you a summary of my resume here but I’m not going to bother.
People like you don’t learn.
