      If this young man is developing skills to build possible careers in flying and/ or developing inovations in the electronics industry, I don't see a problem. The piloting speaks for itself and this video is trulyprofessional grade. If he is spending all day playing computer games or roving through social media, that is another matter. It is hard for me to imagine a young man we see on these videos getting sidetracked with pointless hours on his computer.

We both know that a sudden gust, especially if with a definite crosswind component just as the wheels touch down, can require a quick and accurate response. I would consider this level of almost automatic input is not acquired by the second solo flight. Also, who is carrying the can for a bent propellor, a dent in confidence, or worse?

When I have flown with a couple of instructor friends of mine, they ALWAYS shout out ‘CLEAR PROP’ as a matter of habit really, whatever light GA aircraft they are flying that has propellers.
