*You might even have to decide to give the airplane

I suppose you could say you are at a higher risk if you live within
two miles of any airport. *Is it a reasonable risk? *I think so.

Two miles and 20 meters is entirely 2 different discussions.

(rest snipped for brevity)

Having read many of your posts, I have to agree with Morgans' suggestion
that you argue less and listen more. Once you start your flight training
you will find that many of your current concerns in areas such as this are
unwarranted. In the meantime, your arguments with those who actually fly
and understand the relevant issues neither serve your ultimate goal nor
help those who, like you, participate in this group to learn because
authoritatively stated misinformation is counterproductive.

A brief example; you will learn that you can't be off the runway by 20
meters at most airports without things getting ugly. You will also learn
that there will be times when you will be unable to take off or land at a
chosen airport, and how to judge those times reasonably well.

Be patient, listen, and learn!

Best,

Neil

I appreciate the thought Neil but it's not like I haven't had a few
hundred hours in single/twin in the left seat.



WOW! WJRFlyBoy has a "few hundred hours in single/twin in the left
seat."!

That seems rather strange from someone who only four months ago was
stating that it was time to stop talking and start doin
something....about taking flight training. You must have spent every
waking hour since then doing nothing but flying.

In case you need a small reminder here is you post from a thread you
started on Nov.22, 2007 titled Advice Requested:
================================================== ==

It's time to stop talking and start doing so I would appreciate any
advice on how to assess a flight school, instructor, pricing and any
other suggestions. No advice too basic, trust me Including what I
should have included in this post or requested in the first place TIA

Subject: The Differences Between PPLicensing And Learning

I have been reading the various threads about spins, forced landings,
etc
and talking with CFIs. The road to a PPL is preset in requirements by
FAA.
I see that most people are happy to do nothing more than that. Outside
of
the cost factors, I find this much more than curious considering the
consequences. You can get killed, that one keeps jumping out at me

I am asking the group for assistance in developing a list of
instructional
and solo experiences, testing, mandatory reading.....if you ran the
FAA,
what would you require in a near-perfect world that a PPL would
require? I
am a zero-hour wannabe pilot FYI


For a start, I won't begin my first instruction until I can do the
following:


Pass all tests with a 95% minimum
Handle with ease all traffic control and similar commo
Dissect the anatomy of my training aircraft
Understand what and how the instrumentation works (shortcomings
included)
Own all the fundamentally necessary flight gear (i.e carry-ons in
flight
bag or on person)
Obtain hours in flight simulation
More...enough for now.


TIA. The group is an extremely valuable resource; I sincerely doubt I
would
be so focused and confident without your past, present and future
work
here.

Hell, I don't think you have even started flight training yet and you
want to call yourself...FlyBOY. Time for you to go back to flying
model planes.

I hesitate to add to this discussion because I'm not an instructor,
just a rather slow student who's not qualified to give advice that
might kill someone.

Ah what's the matter, you don't like people posting your own crap for
everyone to see what a bunch of lies you are trying to put over on
them? Sorry but I don't have any intention of going away. I might
however repost some of your other lies for everyone to see.
