Well after 1 year and 1 month, I finally took my Private Pilot check ride on Friday, Feb 23rd. I never actually thought I'd finish. When I started in January of 2006, I remember asking the owner of the flight school "Would it be

| Choosing a CFI | 26 Feb 2007 19:46 GMT | 16 |
I have now taken two lessons (2.2 hours in the logbook, yea). The CFI I flew with was just the guy who answered the phone when I first called to ask to schedule my lesson. I like him and we have done fine. I want to fly with a few others before I settle into an instructor who ...

| odd question: fixed or rotary first? | 26 Feb 2007 04:13 GMT | 3 |
Folks, This spring/summer I'm determined to learn to fly - finally! However, on a winter vacation in Hawai'i I, on the spur of the moment, took my first trial lesson in a helicopter; that's a whole different

| Money and learning to fly | 25 Feb 2007 00:32 GMT | 16 |
Things that fly cost money to purchase, maintain and operate. Instructors need to eat also. If you want to learn fast (costs less) avoid basic flight instruction at busy tower controlled airports. At a tower controlled airport, much of your "Flight" instruction will be on

I have posted this on many other aviation group sites over the past week and thought that you would be interested as well. The March of Dimes is currently holding an online auction for an unbelievable opportunity - especially for flying enthusiasts! The

| Been a good ride here.... | 22 Feb 2007 02:31 GMT | 24 |
Seems that headwinds do wear some folks down.... Seems that the spirit of this newgroup has changed from supporting and sharing experience with student pilots to the spirit of supporting a troll... From the days of my first post seen at

| Best Flight Simulator to use in conjunction with training? | 20 Feb 2007 17:29 GMT | 130 |
I am looking to buy a flight simulation program to suplement flight training (along with all the rudders, yokes, and other USB doodads). I know that MSFS is the most popular, but have read that X Plane is more "accurate". Has anybody had any experience with either/both of these, ...

As an additional thought to carry on from the loss of vacuum discussion, of course we teach students to recognize IMC conditions either with ground school, looking at hard copy weather reports, DUATS, subscription weather, etc. But, how can we prevent anyone from
