Pre-takeoff checklist
Hi guys,
I'm student pilot with 60 hours of flight time (6 hours of solo). I joined flight club and started PPL training last summer in North Carolina. When I had 10 hours of flight time my company sent me to San Diego, CA for 6 month. I decided to keep flying down there, joined flight club, have found CFI and kept going. It is not really easy to me to start training or switch CFI - I'm not US citizen and need to get TSA clearance for every training provider. When I come back to North Carolina I kept flying with my first CFI. He wasn't really happy about me flying with another CFI but that's a another story. And in about 4 weeks from now I'm moving to San Jose, CA area for couple years. I asked my CFI about getting PPL here in NC in the remaining couple weeks but he told me it will be a real stretch, I'm still full time employee, plus weather, plus planes and his availability makes it not real to finish PPL here. That means I will have to keep working on it in the bay area.
Could you recommend flight club or school in the bay area?
Any information about flight training in the area and your advices on how to proceed are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Artiom
