    Level of progression decreasing

    So I have about 10 hours in the plane (T41-C) and I feel like I've almost hit a plateau. I don't know if it's normal. I know basic maneuvers well besides S Turns and Turns around a point. My last lesson was horrible. I was loosing altitude like I've never done. At one point I lost over 200 feet...

    Finally took my first Lesson!

    So I've recently come back from overseas and now have the funds and time to do what I've always wanted. I signed up for ground school which I have been going to and a few days ago I took my first lesson. My instructor told me that I would be overwhelmed. I thought maybe I might be different. I...

    Anyone have any insight of training in Southern California vs Colorado?

    I am about to move back to the US and I plan on starting lessons to get my PPL. I have an option to either go to San Diego ( I can finish my degree there) or go to Colorado Springs where my family lives. Don't really know a whole lot of people in Colorado anymore but that's besides the point...

    Bad Experience in a 172.

    So I want to start pilot training in a few months when I get back to Colorado. This has been my plan for the past year almost. One of my co workers heard me talking about this and long story short, he has a PPL and wanted to take me up since I've never even been in anything as small as a 172...

    I've always had a deep passion for aviation and aircraft. Always looked up into the sky everytime I heard something buzzing in the air. I'm just really confused on what to do and usually you guys seem to help me wander and get back on the road to success. I'm about to be separated from the...

    Thinking of buying a tablet before starting my PPL.

    To get a quick summary. I'm in Kuwait right now. Plan is to be home and start flight training by this time next year. I've been thinking of buying a tablet (iPad or possibly Android) within the next week or so to use to read while I'm out here when I have a chance. I wanted to put copies of the...

    Question about tablet PCs and students in the cockpit

    I have been hearing the rave about iPads and the Samsung Galaxy Tab and how pilots love to use them to replace some paper charts and sometimes even use GPS capability. I am a future student. Probably won't start lessons until about a year from now when I'm out of the middle east. I was...

    Questions about going to college or flight school

    I am about to separate from the Navy with full benefits. I have been lucky to have worked in a technical field (repairing Avionics). I have experience repairing Avionics at component level (think soldering and circuit card replacement) as well as going out to a spinning helicopter and...

    Advice for picking a flight school/CFI?

    First of all I want to introduce myself. My name is Brandon. I'm currently stationed in Guam but forward deployed to Iraq. My plans are to return to Colorado in about a year to finish my degree and start flight school with a bit of money I have saved up. Some people say I'm thinking too far...
