Go easy on me, yes i'm a girl. My instructor was teaching me to hover and it was hot so we didnt have the power to get off the ground and needed to do a running takeoff. He said it'd be okay because our fuel burn would give us enough power to hover later on after the flight for the landing. (R22)

On the takeoff he started to move the collective up and down slightly probably around ten times. During which he said you have to "milk it up". He said it was like going for "round three" and that it wont come up on it's own so you have to "pump it to get it up". The whole lesson he called the ship a "she". Is that normal?

I feel really weird about this. I only have 21.7 hours. What should I do?
