Working instructors comparing notes. Lesson plans, difficult students, endorsement wording, and the permanent argument about whether you teach the maneuver or the reason for it.
Student stories are welcome. Identifying details are not. If you are asking about an endorsement, quote the regulation you are working from.
Instructors only, or people who want to be. Ask the dumb question here rather than in front of your student. That is the whole purpose.
Student on lesson 14 still could not hold heading in the pattern. Turns out he had been staring at the instruments the entire downwind. A piece of paper over the six pack fixed it in one flight. Sometimes the problem is not the skill.
Wrote my first endorsement today and read the AC three times before I signed it. Does anyone else keep the exact wording taped inside their logbook?
