>>1842232I was once handed a student that was supposedly getting close to soloing. First flight I go up with her and ask her to do a steep turn. She says "which one was that again?" and I'm just instantly know this is gonna take a while. Same for all the other maneuvers, too. Basically a new private student who know how to run up and kinda fly. Shit was frustrating. Took about 7 months to get her to solo finally. Her being an ESL definitely didn't help that holy shit. Can't tell you how many times I had to explain what "reduce/increase power to x" means.
