oh sorry, i was in the left seat in a flight design ctls. i taxied from the ramp to the runway, took off but didn't land. we had a tfr in effect so the approach was kind of weird. this was my first time in any sort of small plane. the controls were very touchy. more than i expected but i suppose one gets used to it with experience. the instructor i had made me feel completely at ease and it was a great experience and i can't wait to start the official learning to fly process.
