OP here. I want to thank you ALL for taking the time to respond. You've helped me get some clarification on my training and more importantly, my mindset towards it. Over time, I realized that the unrealistic expectations I placed on myself have (predictably) led to disappointment and...

I hated soloing simply because I wasn't confident in my abilities. I wasn't scared during the flight, as I just kept telling myself to stick with my training and was honestly, too busy to be frightened. Afterwards, I chalked my survival up to dumb luck that nothing bad happened. As for why I'm...

I hated my solo experiences simply because I felt more lucky than good and luck eventually, runs out.

I grew up flying with relatives who are no longer here. Most of my first year was consumed by the medical process and I flew sparingly during that time. The motivation exists, I love the idea of flying but my confidence is shot. I'll do well for a few lessons and then out of nowhere, make a...

Hey all, I'm still in training and I'm looking for a good deal on a used Foreflight Sentry. Just the standard model, not the Mini or Plus. I've seen a few on ebay but several have been from "fake" sellers. I'd rather just buy one from a real human lol. I know Sporty's sells them new but...
