I'm currently finishing up my last semester of college in southern california. I'll be moving to Ohio in June to start my first assignment with the air force at WPAFB. For the last few weeks I've been working on my pilot's license with AFI at KFUL. I've currently got 7.5hrs and ~25 landings in their c152.
My plan is to purchase an aircraft and use it to finish getting my license in Ohio, then use the plane for trips from Dayton to Stambaugh(Michigan) or Eagle River(Wisconsin).
I'm looking to spend up to $25k. I'd like to be able to punch through the clouds on overcast days, so I believe I'd need a plane with an IFR certification, and I'd need to get an instrument rating? I've been looking at IFR certified c152s, but I'm hoping to get some more input on other options.
Any answers, comments, suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!!
