    45.321084,-118.80169. Makes sense.. it's pretty clear, but some possibilities for advantage I am thinking I should have twice the take off length than needed...

    That's sweet... My budget will be more in the 80 range, I can dream, but I have to be realistic for my budget. I don't think they are that negotiable :-)

    I've seen some cool one's on line, just not something that looks like I can leave it for a month, and come back and collect the data yes, the reginal airport (25 miles away) has a weather station, I have found general information, I was hoping to get some hard data on site, just because that's...

    Yes.. Maybe a helicopter, But I did a test fight in a Heli, and I liked the Fixed wing better. I will put a wind sock up there, but I'm only there for a few hours at a time, every other month, so I would like to gave solid data before I retire and take on goofing off on my dreams full time...

    Ok.. So I have 160 acres on top of a mountain. It is only 25 miles from our reginal airport, and a 3 hour drive away on very bumpy roads.... This is a no brainer... I am working on my sport pilot license, and within the year, hope to purchase a plane to land on my mountain top, short walk to...

    Sport and DUI

    Understood. I will start the Random tests, gather info. In the mean time I will work on my Sport, It might change to a PPL if I feel comfortable with my paperwork in 4 to 6 months, but air time is air time. I did go through a required 10 week program, so I should be able to go to that...

    Hobby, fun, buy. I Am new enouph that I don't know what I like yet. I've only been in the 172 so far. Self study? Or on line course?

    Sport pilot school

    It suposed to be a vacation, so I'm looking for a full service Sport fight school. Travel is good. I'm in Oregon, but would rather good over local.

    Sport pilot school

    I'm looking to take a vacation, instead of spending a year getting a lesson a leek to get my SP an maybe having life get in the way, I'd like to go somewhere for two to 4 weeks, and fly home... Any suggestions for schools in the US that specialize in Sport?

    Sport and DUI

    I'm going to start with SP. I can always do my random while enjoying flying, instead of waiting to fly. My mid to late 40s, already feels like I've waited to long. I might be able to afford a LSA this way also. thank you for the advice. I will follow it. I don't know if having a SP...

    Ok, so hours in the seat of a 172 can't be logged for sport, but in a LSA can count for PPL?

    I have got a lesson planned for March 4th. I will talk to my CFI and see what he says. There are 3 sport pilot instructors listed in my state that I can find, and one is at the same airport I'm learning at. Lots of great info from all. Thank you.

    Sport and DUI

    Thank you. That makes a lot of sense. My budget isn't the best, and it makes sense to go the less expensive route first. If I feel restricted and decided it's worth the hoops, than I will have my ducks together, (not in a row) but at least in the same pond. . Anyone else been down this...
