Had another autorotation-practice flight lesson this weekend. Went pretty well. Did most of it myself, although I'm still getting used to flares (God, I do not want to practice the flare part without someone else in the cockpit, I am never not going to worry that my tail boom is about to hit the ground without warning).

The instructor has enough confidence in my skill at this point to start secretly messing with some of the controls in order to see how I handle an emergency popping up without warning. Fortunately he only started doing this when we were air taxiing back to the ramp.

Next flight lesson will be Plan Your Course And Fly To Portsmouth.
