[#1 FLAMED OUT]

What do you guys like to teach your student on the 2nd and 3rd flight lesson?

Not landings!

Landings, landings, landings

On the second or third lesson! That is absurd.

I'm a student with one flight lesson, I'd like to second that. I'd still be working on straight and level flight with coordinated turns, MAYBE stalls.

It's never too early for slow flight.

Correct. This practice will prove invaluable, when later in your career, you find yourself in trail of a B737.

I'm stuck right now with two students who can't seem to grasp the flare concept or get a good grip on the perception that is needed. That is why I posted what I did. I also figured it would give someone a chance to b!tch about something. After all, thats why most people reply on this site.

Well maybe you should put down the mouse and the keyboard and get training! I see you have quite a few posts for someone with only ONE flight lesson.
I hope you didn't take this the wrong way

Second or third lesson is when I usually remember to bring my instrument covers so that I can cover the DG and altimeter so my student can learn how to maintain altitude and heading.

Other than that, depending on earlier progress, it's either (1) climbing and descending turns or (2) changes in airspeed while maintaining straight and level flight, maybe even all the way to slow flight.

I'm 14, buddy. Taking two lessons every week and spinning my wheels for two years until I can solo would be a waste of money. Now, when I can solo.... thats another story

If your referring to having one lesson a lack of knowledge, I've been a member of AOPA for over eight months and have read their entire website front to back five times. While I don't have 9000 hours like some of you do here, I figured I could at least share my thoughts.

However, seems like this place is for the top gun pilots and high time freight dogs.
