Having been a coach for a
number of years and having written a number of articles for both the West
Australian clubs and the GFA magazine, in addition to finding some great
articles from other pilots. I have decided to place these articles on
the web for all to retrieve as they require.
Please look at the articles as you require, I hope that you can learn from
them. If you are an early solo or cross country pilot, that is you have been
flying only a few years can I suggest that you read, Speed and Angle of Bank as
a priority.
