Two days ago I was finally able to go up for another lesson after a month. Thanks to mother nature and my work schedule I had to cancel the last two. My instructor told me a few days before that the 152 I typically trained in was down for maintenance, and offered to take the 172 instead. So with...

So here is my situation, I've been slowly (as time and money allows) been taking lessons toward my PPL at an FBO close to home. However now I've been back at college this semester I've been having to drive home on weekends to continue my flight lessons which is about 100 miles. I'm enjoying...

So today for the first time in a few weeks I was able to take to the skies out of KGMU to build some more time for my PPL.

So I'm very far in my flight training from the point of being a CFI (only about 5 hours in on my PPL). But I'am very curious about what typical CFI pay/hours is like. Does it depend on where you instruct? Do people instruct as there full time job?(i think my CFI has another job as well)...

Hello All! This is my second post on here. Still pretty early in my flight training. Today I went up for my Third lesson, flying a Cessna 152. We worked on approach patterns, and I was able to do my first touch and go. I have gotten the hang of piloting the aircraft in the air...
