Times Student Finds All Is Not Smooth in Flying

BY LOWELL NUSSBAUM Times Aviation Editor SUNDAY I nearly lost hope of ever becoming a pilot. With my regular instructor, Bob Shank, back with me, I climbed confidently into a training plane at Hoosier airport, expecting to show Shank how good I was. Ready for the take-off. I pushed forward on the stick, opened the throttle and waited for plane to gain speed. I waited too long. The wheels began bouncing wildly, and I pulled back sharply on the stick to leave the ground. I had pulled back too hard, and after climbing a moment the wheels hit the ground again and bounced into the air, settling into the proper climbing angle, as Shank righted my error. Making a wide circle, a mile or two in diameter, I prepared to land. And what a landing! In the first place, I started gliding too steeply after cutting the gun. Then, as we neared the ground. I used too much rudder and got the plane swinging from side to side. Checking this, I leveled off too soon and lost so much flying speed that the wheels hit the ground with a bang and the plane bounced up into the air again, finally coming to a three-point landing (both wheels and the tail skid) after several wild hops.

I WaS given a curtain lecture by Shank this time. He explained my errors in detail, and then we took off again to practice straight flying. The aii was a little bumpy and I had difficulty keeping the wings level and the nose on the horizon. I found I was having a little more luck keeping the wings level. I have been having a tendency to fly with my left wing low. Shank told me I reminded him of those two famous Chinese aviators, “One Wing Hi” and “One Wing Low.” a a a Again I essayed a landing. The result was better, but still discouraging. I tried two more landings and the results were not much different. Shank consoled me with the ex-

planation that the wind was a little too rough for a student with only two hours in the air to his credit. a a a THEN we taxied up to the hangar and I gave up my seat to another student. After a little instruction from Shank, the other student took off. While I stood near the hangar wondering if ever another student had had as slight prospects of soloing as I appeared to have, the plane with the other student in it came gliding in for a landing. Bang went the wheels on the ground and the plane hopped around as it had for me. It gave me a mean satisfaction to see that landing. It encouraged me, somewhat, also. Wiat until Tuesday. I am going back to Hoosier airport and make a good landing.
