Primary Flight Training Flight Sense (1944)

Two young pilot trainees arrive for primary flight training and meet their instructor Navy pilot Lt Taylor Lt Taylor talks to the men about the necessity of becoming practiced in the way of the aircraft in such a way as to enable them to rely on their senses much of their time in the air as reliance on instruments can be confusing for beginning pilots He explains that at first flying will be like walking or riding a bicycle were first learned by trial and error and following strict instructions But with practice eventually the pilots senses will take over and much of the process of flying will rely more on his feel for the plane and less on rote following of instructions
