The Student Pilot Podcast Almat Flying Academy

Whilst it may be human nature to compare our progress to others, it can be counterproductive.

We talk about why others journeys to becoming a licensed pilot can be vastly from your own. The key take away, is to focus on your progress and improvement, but celebrate others wins.
