I like some wind for our trainer since it doesn't like to come down. When there is little wind I always overshoot and have to come back around again.
During 1:1 scale lessons the stuff I hated the most was turns around a point. You had to make a perfect circle around a point on the ground regardless of wind. It isn't hard, just tedious.
Beating the instructor on the least amount of runway used on landing, that was exciting. I guess landing at the airport in Dyersville was as well, but that was a different kind of exciting.
