We talked about motivation, effective communication and barriers to learning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Next we moved to technical subject areas and a roll of the dice gave me runway incursions and avoidance. 14 CFR, publications, \u00a0and logbook entries and endorsements.<\/p>\n<p>For runway incursions I just showed him all the material that I had in my binder, told him about the importance of safety during taxi, I used the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tenerife_airport_disaster\">Tenerife accident in 1977 <\/a>as an example.<\/p>\n<p>Next we moved to 14 CFR, he asked me what is Part 1 and what is NTSB Part 830.

He flew the plane until we left the SFRA. \u00a0After leaving the SFRA he asked me to teach him and show him steep turns. Next he told me to teach him a chandelle. I did a chandelle and he did one.\u00a0 Next he reduced the power to idle and told me that we have lost the engine. I was asked to teach him what to do. We made it to the field I selected and did a go around.\u00a0 We did the emergency descent because we were high from the chandelles.<\/p>\n<p>Next he told me to teach him 8s on pylons while he flew the maneuver. From that we flew to KDMW. I took the controls and he told me to do a power off 180 to land on the 1000 marker. After that we taxied back to the runway and he told me to teach and show him a soft field takeoff. Next he told me to teach and show him s-turns. \u00a0Next he told me to teach and show him a power off stall. Then we talked about trim stalls and flew back to KGAI.
