Hello,
This might be a long shot, perhaps not allowed, forgive me I don't read all the rules for each internet forum.
I am newly FIRE'd from job. Farm related business has us busy through end of the year. After that we plan to head south from home to see sites, visit some family and friends. Family resides in a few places in FL, Dallas, and Houston. Friend in Atlanta and Tulsa. We are putting together an adventure list of what to see along the way, enjoy the slow roads.
Why share all this here? Well I am a 30+ hour student at present, not sure where I will be at with training when we travel. I would like to get some flight time while on the road, not sure how it works with walk in students. C172 are what I train in, a 73 M. I've spent a few minutes in an early C177. I am willing to pay for CFI and wet plane time. I'd like to see the south from the air and experience new/different planes.
Any suggestions where to pick up some flight time along the way? Ground schools or individuals?
Anyone here need fuel and plane time money?
He: 6'6" 275# (but goes up wt on vacation)
She 135#
We plan on looking at the Van Bortel offerings when in TX. A guy can dream right?
Thank you.
