Anyway, after 12 Weeks in I was able to go to my flying club with confidence after Dave’s tuition. Dave is very strict in his teaching manner and approach but never personal in doing so, which gives you flying discipline at its best! I am now 12 Months in and can\u2019t believe how far I have come. Hovering skills, loops and turns and I am now confident to fly on my own and carry out these intricate manoeuvres thanks to Dave Fisher (Heli Guru) and the Flyin\u2019 Fish team!.
