Other times, you want to let him be, since he is the more experienced one at landing planes such as the one you are in at that point.
And just to make sure, by FL50 you do mean 5,000' MSL, right?
I was fine on the yoke, it was the heat and the gurgging coming from my stomach that was the problem. Oh, and my friend who is opening the little window on his side to cool off. I'm flying, following a road, and I keep hearing *woooosh* stops *woooosh* stops. I look over, he looks at me and is like, what, I'm hot.
Yeah, 5,000' MSL is more accurate :) FL50 is less to type ;)
