Thank you for your honest answer. I do have a full time job and would only have weekends to devote to learning. I will just go with my local beginners flight school at my own pace. I was just wanting to feel out the “water”, so to speak, on what others thought before I broached the subject with...

True.. and I certainly don’t wanna send a gear through the wing on a super hard landing.. so, I’ll pass. I guess a 172 will be my learner!

He’s offered to let me take off.. and lower the landing gears on final. I’ll take it! I’ll just go with Flight Venture in Olive Branch for actual lessons.

Sound advice, thank you.

Thanks. That seems to be the consensus. I’d love to learn to fly on the down low and surprise my husband. Luckily we have a training facility about 10 miles from where I live. I will check them out! Thanks!

Ah.. okay. I learned to drive.. 10 years later I did stick shift.. a year later I learned a motorcycle. So, I may be a little slow in that department.

In/on.. I get the joke now.. I’m a little slow, apparently. Haha

Yeah.. I’ve probably gone the wrong route with questioning here. ‍♀️ I should have just asked him.

*sense...

Piper Cherokee before.. and he flies a B206 for the Sheriff Dept I work for. I’ve flown with him but never paid attention to how he does it.. if that makes since. I’ve always been a JAFO.

Wouldn’t a tail dragged be harder to learn? Honest question.

Incidentally his first plane was a Piper Cherokee!

Thank you for the video.. not only was the plot humorous but it taught me a bit about glide slope!

Not too many folks agree with that notion though. I’m a very laid back person and I don’t want to put any pressure on the husband for something I could learn elsewhere and then train on the F33 later. I figure at this point I’ll bang up a 152 or 172, get my solo or license.. then approach him on...

Lol! Wouldn’t he though? I could probably sneak away a few hours a day. Thank you for your advice.

Please understand that I asked this question here because I wanted an honest answer. Straight out asking him could be awkward, especially if the answer was “no”. I wanted a heads up so I could express interest in learning at the local flight school if the Bonanza was a bad aircraft to begin...

That’s the answer I was looking for.. thanks!

Before I mention it to him, yes..

Husband bought a Bonanaza F33A. He’s been flying for 30 years. I want to learn to fly at some point myself.. could I learn to fly on a Bonanza or will it be too much? Note: I have not asked hubby to teach me.. I’d rather find out if I should just start on a 152 or 172 before I bring the...
