Some flights don’t need to go far to mean something.

No canopy. No walls. No engine to hide behind.

Nobody gets better in the air.

Pilots get better in the minutes after, going through the plan vs actual and what changes next time.

Do it properly and stop making the same mistakes twice.

What’s your debrief trick?
