Title: another newcomer here Post by: Mike on December 12, 2007, 08:47:28 PM Hello everyone. I just discovered this site this evening. It looks like a real nice group here.
About a year and a half ago I wanted to try flying as a new hobby. Then I found out a close friend in another state started to pursue getting a Sport Pilot License and that motivated me too. I wanted to get into helicopters but after researching I found it would be too expensive for someone who's not looking for a career in it. I enjoyed the discovery flight in the helo very much though. Decided I'd get into fixed wing then maybe get a helo add on in the future. I checked out 2 local fixed wing schools and did an intro flight at each. Plan to do another this weekend. I liked school #1 but it is far. They have nice clean late model Cessna 172's but I can barely reach the pedals. School #2 is nearby and cheaper, and they have 152's which are just right for me but I don't want to go back there. The school I'm looking into now is not too far away and they have different aircraft, with a stick instead of a yoke. I'm looking forward to trying that.
