Over controling the plane is the usual problem.
Just tap the buttons/keys.
Steal a plane from the Los Santos Airport and practice flying without the pressure.

Enter – Enter/Leave Vehicle -- (pick-up burglary items)
Arrows Right/Left. Bank Right/Left.

Note that if you practice flying early in the game for 20 real time minutes, you will get a pilot's licence but you still have to complete flight school later on to prove to Toreno that you have the right stuff to continue on.
You can practice flying around the city of LS early in the game but don't fly into other areas of the map because you will activate stars and have MIGS on your tail. Just fly around the city or the ocean to the south east corner.
Also if you don't have a pilot licence, DON'T BAIL OUT OF THE PLANE! You won't have an automatic parachute! You get an automatic parachute only when you have your pilot licence.

I personally had troubles with circling the airstrip. The rest was easy.

What I don't understand is why people find Zero missions hard - they were easy as hell!

PS I think everyone is missing the OP's point.

Depends on the Players skills, some breeze through it. While other usually I expect try to hard. When overcontrolling and not letting the play(s) fly themselves all kinds of things happen. Tapping the control button instead of helding it works best. making adjustments on every second of flight is too much. Let it fly, if it needs correction a tap, and wait to see what happens, then another tap if necessary.
Like in the N.O.E. the ground raises and falls. So, flying level does the job. When the alarm goes off a second or two later the ground rises and the alarm turns off. You don't have to fly the grounds contours. So avoid crashes, don't over control.

Some people had trouble controling the Planes.
