Still in...

I'm heading from Chicago (UGN) to Missouri(OZS) that day. Weather permitting I'm in. It's not too far out of the way. :)

I considered posting but didn't since there weren't any details or cause yet. He was a member of our club. Although I didn't know him well he'd been around for over 20 years. I'd been to his hangar a few times when he was working on the RV. When you looked at someone and thought it couldn't...

For those of us not in the know? What do they stand for?

I've flown in and out of this airport many times. Besides the hwy and the length of the runway it is a very active parachuting airport too so it can be exciting coming in and out at times. I always feel close to the hwy I94 (major interstate between Chicago and Milwaukee) on landing but never...

Yeah that ^^. I think it looks stupid too, but who am I? When I think about the things I did to rebel at a young age... Yikes!

Is this your professional opinion Dr. Skyhog? :) Ok. I may be a skeptic too about how quickly kids are diagnosed but I think someone made the point to say that you are best to get an ADHD diagnosis from a psychiatrist, not a GP. I make a point to tell my GP when I'm complaining about...

True but as the OP stated he doesn't fly enough to stay proficient. And at 1 - 2 hours a month, as he stated, I wouldn't be comfortable putting my family in the plane VFR or IFR. I've gone a month without flying a couple times. Maybe it's because I'm a relatively low time pilot but after...

You said yourself you don't fly enough to stay proficient. Do you want to put the kids in just to "call your wife's bluff?". I will be getting my IFR in April but I can tell you if i were in your shoes and self aware that I'm legal, but not proficient, I'm not putting anyone else at risk...

Training in a class D that was where my instructor said I was the weakest also. I downloaded the liveatc app and listened to it driving to/from every lesson.

That is the purpose. When my 70 year old grandma set hers up, the lawyer helped with the house but still she missed a couple things... It happens.

I know there are many types of trusts, but in my recent experience my grandmother passed. I was the trustee. As a trustee I sold the house and then distributed the funds. Unless you are keeping it in the family, which you would than probably want to talk to a lawyer about transferring and...

Nonsense

Satisfaction

About as likely as a guy walking up to someone in the supermarket and showing him a picture of random girls losing their virginity (or giving bjs).

Is your current job/credentials something you can fall back on? You're young and not tied down. If you understand the potential downsides and are still excited about it, follow your dreams. This advice is from a guy who is not a pro pilot but has successfully changed careers to follow money...

It does get easier. You will probably even learn things you won't use beyond the check ride. They are all important for building a good base and it requires a lot of work. To your final question though the saying goes "if you have time and money to spare go by air". I have many flights under...
