One of the biggest problems is the tendency for instructors to take on too much of the workload during training sessions. Instead of allowing students to make decisions and learn from their mistakes, many instructors are stepping in too quickly, doing everything for the students. In this episode I discuss the role of the instructor and some common areas they interfere too soon.

Fuel management is more than just making sure you have enough fuel to reach your destination—it's about optimizing every drop, from takeoff to landing, to ensure safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Whether you're cruising at 7,000 feet or managing a cross-country flight, understanding how to monitor and adjust your fuel consumption is a skill every pilot must master.

 In this episode, we'll explore the latest terminology, best practices for using a fuel log, how to lean the mixture correctly at different altitudes, and the key moments in flight where fuel management plays a crucial role.

Instructor training is an important part of becoming an instructor. Who you learn from being pivotal in ensuring you get the best start possible.  However, after reading responses from some of you in our survery and the feedback at the conference recently was that there is a lot of what to teach going on, but not a lot of why. So in this episode I want to discuss this and look at ways we can train our instructors better which will flow onto better flight training for everyone.
