I'm up here workin a turnaround and around nikiski (I think that's the spelling) I see two small "airfields". The "runway" looks like about a hundred yard long mudhole. I have respect for anyone landing on that crap. Of course I wanna be a bush pilot when I finish training so I suppose I should...

Well guys, looks like its time to start growing up. At 19, iv been out of highschool for less than a year, and collage wasn't for me. I mulled around for a while trying to figure out what to do with myself. Recently my best friend mentioned aviation, mostly as a hobby or something to look good...

I'm working 88+ hours a week in a chem plant 2k miles from home to pay for mine. Of course in 19, single, and wanna eventually fly for a living. But the plan is to bust my hump and rake in the dough for a year or two, pay off my debt, which is only like 7k, which I make in just over a month...

what the heck is the purpose of the rudder? i know it controlls the planes nose left and right but sence you turn with the yoke (aerlions?) in what sittuation is the rudder used? of course i only have about .9 of an hour in a plane and am completely new to this, and im sure my instructor covered...

U got that right. It hurts just thinkin about what this is going to cost. Challenged, where in louisiana are you from? And the folks at fly by knight are really cool. Always happy (if a bit off the wall) and very helpful.

It was really cool. I'm 19 years old so I'm gettin an early start I think. Workin in chemical plants to pay for flying lessons. I'd like to be able to fly for a living. I'm also 6ft5, 338 pounds so its just a little cramped in the little warrior. And I have to fly with a very light instructor...

Went to fly by knight here in hammond louisiana. Never been in a plane before. My first time was in a piper warrior with a 12mph wind gusting to 20 and I had full controll of the aircraft from engine start to cut off. Absolutely amazing, terrifieing, and addicting. I think I'm in love with it. :)
