Title: Introduction Post by: James on September 05, 2007, 11:51:19 AM Hi everyone, I am James and I am from North Texas. I am looking into getting my sport pilots license as I have built myself a plane.
I built a Challenger II Ultalight with a 583 rotax. Not a bad kit, fairly straight foward with alot of available tech support. Anyways, I finished the project and have now logged about 20 hours of flight in it. Mostly around Northern Texas and southern Oklahoma. I have plenty of room to take off from my pasture and have a great private runway in the Kiamichi mountains. The problem: I am getting bored flying back and forth and would like to expand my horizons. Like I said before I have no license, and have been very careful not to get "Pulled over". This bird is EASY to fly, I taught myself in about an hour of low level take offs and landings at my house. I have looked in my very local area and have not found a Sport Pilot instructor. I would also like to do my training in my OWN plane, it seems silly to pay 100 dollars and hour to rent someone elses when i have my own. Is it at all likely I can find someone to train with me in my plane? How much trouble am I going to be in when I get "Pulled over" before I get the license? Am I the only one that is stupid enough to teach themselves to fly? Thanks for you time everyone!!!!! :) Title: Re: Introduction Post by: James on September 06, 2007, 12:34:01 PM Does anyone actually use this forum?
