A little bit OT - I received a pretty cool book for x-mas called 'Slipping the Surly Bonds - Great Quotations on Flight' by Dave English (pretty fun read so far)... back on topic, one was "There are some flight instructors where the student is important, and there are some where the instructor in important. Pick carefully." Thanks for the feedback. Right now my purpose is to just experience a taste of flying to see if it's something I would continue pursing (I have already been studying quite a bit on the subject). So, the big question on my mind right now is if I should wait until I would have time to dedicate to flying (if I wanted to continue) or just do it whenever. I guess in the case of the latter I would save myself a lot of time studying if I didn't like it. Any thoughts on either approach? For the CFIs in the NG, based on your experience giving intro flights do people usually like it more than hate it? Thanks. -- Mike |

If you like it and decide you want to pursue it as far as your license, then save up your money and set aside some time, and when you are ready, go for the whole bean bag.
