Actually, the first step is to order a copy of the book STICK AND RUDDER by Wolfgang Langweise and read it cover-to-cover at least twice. It was written in the early 1940's, but is still in print and is still the bible of VFR flying -- I've never met a pilot who read it and didn't recommend it strongly. Order it now -- it's a cheap investment at EUR 24.00. Unfortunately, I didn't read it until after I finished my PPL (and after I'd written my Circuit in FlightGear tutorial): http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/0070362408/ Outside of Germany: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0070362408/ http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/0070362408/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0070362408/ etc. Also highly recommended for people who fly only the sim -- you can try out the techniques with the book open on your desk in front of you.
