Hi all. I'm a 39 year old guy who has loved flying and dreamt of being a pilot for a long time. This year I finally realized that I had more than enough money to start and figured I owed it to myself to book a discovery flight with every intention of seeing it through to my private pilot's license. I've also spent a ton of time through the years on various PC based flightsims, and on them I've flown a variety of aircraft and understand the instruments and navigation. Did this 'instructor' share you passion for flying, or was he an hours builder looking for a way out to the airliner as soon as possible? Many of the so-called CFIs loose sight of their passions for flying and end up simply building time so they can move on. I suggest you find a different instructor, and maybe even a different school, to pursue your dream. Don't give up on it, it really is the most enjoyable and challenging experience around! |
