I actually have a podcast I produce on this very subject. I’m five episodes in and it’s fascinating the stories people have shared with me. Plenty of people have made the transitions successfully. What I’ve heard from my guests so far is it does take discipline, some sacrifice, and hard work...

Late to the party, but I’ll plug a few. YouTube: Just Plane Silly for some good satire, Taking Off, Aviation101, finer points Podcasts: pilot to pilot, aviatorcast, I.LA.F.F.T, Sportys Pilot Discretion. And I would be reminded to not mention my own…The Flying Midwest Podcast, and Fly the...

I ended up doing more with my CFI than solo. Granted my CFI and I are partners in our sundowner, so it was pretty convenient. Having the critique as I went was helpful for me personally, but there is certainly value and confidence built in doing these solo as well. I think the ratio is...
