Discovery flight

Hi,

I have always wanted to learn how to fly since I was a kid. After emigrating to the US in 1992, I had planned to do this after I was financially stable. I finally decided to do this last year. And after about a year of dragging my feet, I finally took a discovery flight at a local school here today.

It was quite good. The instructor allowed my wife to ride along too. We did a few turns and banks. And he let me steer on the ground before takeoff and after landing. He said that I had good control of the plane in flight and I corrected quite nicely for the unpredicable lift here in the Rockies.

However, on the way down, during landing, I was feeling uneasy since we dropped altitude sharply in order to land.

Is this common on the first flight, or do you think this feeling will persist? Should I continue learning think about it again?

Any hints, ideas?
