    Buying an airplane at a young age

    Hey all, I'm looking into getting my first airplane to build time in the next month or so. I'm a PPL and doing my training at Purdue. I will need a loan for the plane itself which I'm looking to purchase for roughly $30-35k. (I don't have an exact plane picked out yet) I will be able to...

After we landed we did a postflight briefing that also lasted roughly five minutes...
