    Overflying the field

    Hi, I was talking to my instructor today about over flying the field to enter the pattern and had a question he was unsure of. My home field (kpwk) has Two pattern altitudes. One for piston planes and one for jets. So when over flying the field which pattern altitude do you over fly?

    Atp

    I figure in the end everyone has to pass the same test held to the same standards. I'm the type of person that needs the repetitive drilled into my head. Atp seems to fit that. Ill have something to fall back on if flying goes south. Ill already have my ppl before I start so I won't be doing all...

    Getting my PPL

    Good news, I went up today with my instructor and he didn't touch the controls once during the 1.5 hour flight. Also I've become perfectly fine with turbulence/ thermals Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk

    Getting my PPL

    I went up with my first instructor (got a new one half way through training) in a diamond and did spins because the thought terrified me ended up loving it. I love seeing people's reactions when they see the video Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk

    c172 vs Sr-20

    how do i go about doing that? i figure if i go to school for it that's mostly what my days will revolve around if i go to school and fly separate then i have to work out the schedule which seems like a huge pain in the ass.

    c172 vs Sr-20

    no you can't but there used to be a guy that kept his cirrus in the hanger with my flight school and he was a complete idiot of a pilot.
