| done 14 or so hours or so - and yeah gets expensive as. Tis a shame as i was getting close to doing a solo circuit or 2 and apparently your first solo flight is one of the biggest buzzes possible. |

I love planes and flying. I fixed aviation electronics for 5 years!
I would love to start taking flying lessons but it cost so much money.:( |
why not fly an ultralight instead - in some states weight classes don't require a pilots license. |

There is actually a bit of work like that in Australia, guy I know from when I got my licence works for one of the small airlines up in Nth Qld doing it. Though in my opinion flying over that much water all the time can be a bit nerve racking if you ever had to ditch it and tropical weather can be 'exciting' up there! |

:wtf: Really? All the way on your side of the pond? What do you hear?
And no, Oshkosh is its own deal. The one here is a seperate annual show, and the navy's blue angles are doing a 20-city tour as well. So rather than try and sleep through jets cruising over my house close and fast enough to shake the windows, I grabbed my camera. :) |
