I sort of take exception to the comment the "everybody/anybody" can get PPL
or finish university. Not everyone has the drive to see it to the end.
(sort of 99% perspiration 1% inspriration theory)

Flying is a real enjoyment and doing it just to do it "fast" just doesn't
seem to be a really good reason. Maybe the new sport pilot lic is where you
want to be. If you want to experience flight take a few lessons and havie
fun on the flight sim should do it. I'm not sure you will be that safe with
going for the min for everything. I trained in the East and learning to fly
all of the seasons was worth the investment.

Who knows maybe flying will turn into a love rather than a challange. Then
welcome to the club.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your respond.
The airport is located at the E Class Airspace in Southern California.
My instructor always told me about the benefit to learn at the airport
with Class E airspace, which is probably true.
The reason that I put a target to my self, is to find out if the
simualtor really helps or not, and to find out if I still able to
compete with my self and my will. Its just a challange that will
motivate me to learn as hard as possible. Everybody can get PPL in
60-70 hours and everbody can finish university in 4-6 years, but whats
unique about that? nothing. Challance is like an exitement in life.
That is why I need some input from all the people in this room who has
thausands thausands hour of flying about a challanging and exiting PPL
program structure.
About my english, I still have to speak and write in English and
Chinese on daily basis. Especailly at home, since i am a thirth
generation here, I still pretty much attach to my grand-parents
language. So appologize if the grammer a little off guess.

Appreciate in advance for your input.

sounds reasonable?

You still haven't told us where you are located, and we certainly
can't answer your questions without knowing what regulations you
will be studying under. It doesn't sound as if English is your
native language?
