... Not at all. I train out of Cullman, AL in a C-152. So far the training is going good. I did have a time getting used to rudder work (and still do occasionally) but its getting much better. So, what do C-152s rent for out there in Cullman, AL? |

i'm almost 60 and the big thing i remember about sharing the pattern
with big flying lizards is "you're ok behind, just don't spend any time under". dan Mortimer Schnerd, RN wrote: (snip) I don't know. I'm 52 and I seem to recall there being pteradactyls in the pattern when I was learning how to fly. |

Cullman right now rents a C-152 at $70.00 wet. Think the price will be
coming down real soon. CareBear "Grumman-581" wrote in message ... "CareBear" wrote in message ... Not at all. I train out of Cullman, AL in a C-152. So far the training is going good.

Thanks. I'm not racing to get my ppl. My objective is to learn as much as
I can and do things the right way. CareBear "Greg Farris" wrote in message ... In article , says... Congratulations on getting your ppl. I hope to get mine before the year is over. You'll get it when you get it. Depending on what the weather is doing, and how much time you have to consecrate, it can take longer. Don't be impressed by the young ones who claim to have soloed after 7 hours and were ready for the PPL well before the 40-hour limit. In today's regulatory context, 60h is more typical. It's a highly rewarding thing you're doing. GF |
