YIPPEE! I'm now a private pilot!
Now I need an aviation GPS .... No, Joe, you do not "need" a GPS. At the risk of sounding like an old curmudgeon, let me suggest that what you now have is permission to practice flying. What you REALLY need is a great deal of practice reading an aeronautical chart so that you can find your way on the day that expensive GPS you want to buy craps out and you're up there all alone with no idea where the hell you are. (And you're about to blunder into a area where the F-16s will come looking for you.) If you can't navigate with depending on a GPS, you're an aeronautical cripple. vince norris |
