The traffic in question was a white cessna, so now I dont feel too bad about not seeing it.

I really hope to be able to train at least once a week. Trying to pick up either a second job or enough side work to pay for my lessons. 10-4 on the A&P. Im a mechanic by trade and would feel alot better if I was trained on airplanes too. Its good to know how things are supposed to work, and...

Considered going back to school...
