Howdy. While posting in another thread I had an idea that I think would help anyone interested in training. Anytime you have your thoughts in order and on paper, you tend to be more organized and efficient. For this reason, I'm going to be creating the following:
MS Word or .pdf checklist for trainers. Sort of like a lesson plan, except it gives things to them in the exact order they would use it on a flight.
Engine startup, basic taxiing and takeoff.
Cleaning up the airplane
Maneuvering
Landing
Once someone has figured these things out, cards for Rocketry, bombing, shooting and strafing
Carrier landings
Formation flying (I teach this because inveitably it helps with dogfighting, as dogfighting is a very rigorous formation flight)
Basic ACM (Immelman, Split-S, Turns)
Advanced ACM (Yo-Yo, Scissors, Rolling Scissors)
If anyone here has any tips, hints or suggestions please post them and I will try to incorporate the best/easiest/most effective ones into the cards in hopes of at least teaching from a standardized base of information.
