Fundamentals of Flight Training

Our fundamentals of flight training articles discuss the foundations and underlying principles of flight training at multiple levels, and are not only intended for student pilots (unless marked as such). We hope that also commercial pilots and in particular flight instructors will gain a new perspective on their profession from them. They cover the underlying physical reality of piloting an aircraft, mental aspects of flight and flight training, teaching methods and the roles of the flight instructor, etc. These articles also motivate why ground instruction is so important in flight training and why most of flight training happens on the ground.
