Part of Plane Model Teaches Correct Use of Controls

To aid in teaching student pilots how to fly, a Florida air school demonstrates problems in flying with a model airplane fitted with a set of standard controls. Placing the tiny ship in a certain position in the air, the instructor asks the students to set the controls as they should be in actual flight. Another method is to adjust the controls to a given setting and require students to place the model in the position such asetting would give a flying plane. Instruction in all manner of maneuvers and acrobatics, is thus simplified for beginners.
