Take this from someone who was rolled 45 degrees, while at 50 AGL, crossing the runway threshold, because of wake turbulence from a Dash 8. All because I got overconfident with the "it's never been a big deal before" attitude. |
It is much better for a student to experiance something with their instructor for the first time then on their own. Im not saying take him in behind a 747 but a Crj or even your own wake would be good for him to feel.
