I didn't ask since my GI benefits are exhausted.

Ahoy me mateys. Tis a student pilot aboard who doesn't want to choose the wrong flight school & walk the plank I am fortunate to have both a Part 61 & 141 school very close and although it would be easier to complete GS & flight training at the 61 (10min vs 25min drive), I am wondering if this...

The physical became much more in-depth, requiring at-least one more test by a cardiologist after I disclosed two surgeries and two medical conditions. Just like you said, be sure you can pass the physical. Luckily, though, the doctor seemed confident these will not be show-stoppers.

Definitely. Offutt AFB, Omaha NE now until May 2018 Cincinnati OH afterwards (home)

Thank you all. If I am understanding correctly, hours as SIC -may- be possible, and Part 141 may allow for less hours to be completed for the CPL if it's stipulations are followed. I did read up on Part 141 and it was suggested that it might be a good program for those who wish to fly...

Glad it went good. I start ground school Sept 11 and am eager to learn.

Thank you. I guess I should have asked about teaming up with another pilot to get to the Commercial level of 250 hours.

I had my introductory flight last week. I am now considering a career-change to aviation. Is there a way to team up with other pilots who are also going up? I am just trying to become as marketable as possible and get experience. It is a field that thoroughly intrigues me. I study it outside of...
