Joe, if that is your instructor standing beside you, you are off to a much better start than I made at that point. I'm assuming that her name isn't Joe. Switches
Welcome to AviatorChat Joe. Look through some of the training logs several of us did through our training. Keep a log yourself. Let us know if any questions.
Very very cool - lemme tell you, it just keeps getting better and this will change your life for the better in so many ways. Good luck and have fun!!
ha ha no no no that is my girlfriend. she wanted to come along and take pictures while we were in the air. lol
i believe it will make life better my ultimate goal would be able to fly a P-51 Mustang. i love those planes! is that even possible for someone to do?
good article in a recent flying magazine (I think Warbirds) about a young pilot that started volunteering at local warbird museum. In late 80's he got his pilots license, a few years later started flying the museum trainers, and now he's flying about everything the museum has including a Corsair. Believe the museum is Planes of Fame. So he had zero experience at one point and no background, just through determination and connections over the years he's now a well respected warbird pilot. Ohh, there's also the route of buying your own at $1.5m. Many inexperienced pilots lose their lives in warbirds though.
