In this lesson, Brady and his instructor practiced slow flight, stalls, and an emergency, then came back for a few touch-and-goes.

Brady spent countless hours the last several weeks studying for the written test to earn his certificate.

If something just doesn’t feel right, come in for a landing.

As soon as Brady’s wheels lifted off Runway 27, he was overcome with excitement, confidence, and adrenaline.

This lesson was just the confidence booster Brady needed in his training.

Brady makes several good landings in this lesson.

Almost three weeks had passed since Brady’s last lesson, and he learned that the time away definitely made things feel strange at first.

This was a frustrating lesson for Brady where nothing seemed to work well for him, but his instructor reminded him that most pilots encounter this “learning plateau.”

Brady’s instructor has him review stall recovery to prepare for his solo.

Brady does more pattern work and makes seven landings without help.
