I know this may pertain to a private pilot question so I apoligize. The
Discovery Wings Channel had a show on following a female student through her
training for her private ticket. I had moved and was not able to follow the
show anymore, does anyone know if she got her ticket? Thanks. Oh, and was
there anything excited that happened? Just wondering. Thanks again.
This really probably belongs on rec.aviation.piloting, or rec.aviation.student.
The series is called "Learning to Fly", and it's excellent. It follows a student
pilot through a series of lessons and includes footage of in-flight instruction
and ground instruction. I think there are 5 1-hour episodes in the series. I
TiVoed and taped it, but I lent out the tapes and haven't gotten them back.
They repeat the series from time to time on Discovery Wings, check your program
guide.
I've forgotten who the instructor is, but the quality of instruction is
excellent, IMO. I took some notes from his techniques in case I ever become an
instructor. The instruction all takes place at one of our favorite airports, OSH.
