Hello PoA

[Ray F]

Hey guys and gals, I've been a member here for a bit and made a few posts here and there but I've never formally introduced myself. Name is Ray, a little over 40 hrs into my ppl at 5C1. I need my long xc, night dual xc and checkride prep to finish it up. Can't wait to get it done, it's taken over a year to get where I'm at now as I can really only fly on the weekends. I've really enjoyed this forum so far, it's very informative and entertaining, and it seems there's a good bunch of guys on here. I know there are a few on here from my area and I look forward to meeting you.

Hi! I love PoA. I almost always learn something new and see new perspectives.

Hi, Ray! Welcome aboard.

Thank you. I usually drive to rockport when I go to the coast but when I get my cert KRAS and your hotel may have to be my "go to" spot.

Sweet. I like Rockport fine, but for the ocean and the beach, there's no place better than Port Aransas.

Yeah I hear that unobtanium is kinda hard to get.

Welcome Ray,

I fly out of IWS in Houston. I am sure you are building your experience flying all over central Texas. I have family in Austin, so it's just a matter of time before I start heading out that way. What type of plane are you training in?
