    That is in driver. The trailer is straight in the dock. I'd hate to take a hood in there! :biggrin_25521: It's bad enough with a Vulva.

    :biggrin_25514: Are all new drivers this arrogant?
    When I go to training and do a perfect back, I'm going to pound my chest and yell out to the instructor: "I just did a Walstib....... baby!!!!" The instructor will probably say "this guy's an assh***." I'll say, "hey, you met him too?!"

    Yes, 53's and the yard is very tight, maybe 125' front to back...You can't even roll around to get straight for a parallel, you have to wiggle it into position...

    Well, it's true!...I worked from 11-5 so the other instructor could take the other half of class out on the road...

    Will do!!!...

    You all act this is rocket science...Backing in a lot and teaching people what I was just taught is not tough, sorry some of you don't think you may have been able to do that after you finished school...Plus, I"ve been a teacher, flight instructor, for over 10yrs, I know how to teach and work with people and this skill is far from the toughest I've taught...Teaching someone to fly in clouds in moderate turbulence in the rain and shoot an ILS to minimums makes this look like finger painting...
     
    Wanna drive Thanks this.
