Yes it does feel great to be back in the air, we did some things that were scary, but important lessons. He showed me the extremes of trim control, and we tried and tried to get the airplane to stall, which is darn near impossible in a 172 I've learned. So far he has been much more on the...

Yes he is still fully certified part 137, so he can teach ag. He seemed excited about having an ag student. I like this instructor MUCH more than the one I had in Lubbock. This instructor seems to be teaching me how TO FLY not how to fly a 172.

Hey guys I have been MIA for a little bit, but finally was able to find a new instructor and get a couple of lessons going yesterday. We split it into 2 sessions, the first of which my wife came along for her first flight in anything smaller than a CRJ-700. The second flight we didnt bring my...

Ok SURELY I am not the only person who experiences this. Sometimes when I click Live Chat it loads for about 15 seconds then says authentication failed. Normally this is no big deal since i just click again and its fine, but sometimes it'll do it for 10 minutes straight, and I just give up.

Well I am now officially a 2nd class medical holder/student pilot.

isnt class 2 updated every 2 years?

I'm getting class 2 because I intend on getting my commercial and ag pilot certification, I probably could get away with getting my class 3 until i need the class 2, but i figure i'll get it out of the way.

One last thing, do I need to state the PRK on section 18? If so do I just give reason being "to correct poor eyesight"?

Bruce I was wondering if you might know what exactly I will need to take to the doctor? I set the appointment for Friday, but I don't know if I should push it back or not.

k thank you very much

I am going for my first medical, I have no preexisting health problems that I know of. The only thing that may be an issue is that I had PRK vision correction around 2 years ago. I see perfectly now, but I have heard it may be an issue. Any help would be appreciated.

I would LOVE to come, but I am not a pilot as of yet.

HaHa. Ron this might be one of the funniest things I've read in a long time.

Thanks for all of the great advice everyone. I am looking inti agairupdate right now. I have quite a few calls to make today, schools, an ag pilot etc .. I am so glad I joined this forum, everyone here has been an immense help. Thanks, Jordan

Not sure if I have full access, but if I dont I would love to get it! Thanks, Jordan

Ok guys let me get your opinions on something. Should I get my private and commercial here locally, or should I go to the FYBO school? I feel like there may be variables here at home which may lead to it taking forever, or hitting a roadblock. I dont know if there would be substantial price...

When I was talking to the owner of Ag-Flight in GA yesterday he told me to NOT get any type of flying training, but to instead do it all at a school. He told me the reasoning was to avoid building bad habits. My question... Was he blowing smoke up my tail pipe or should i really save any and...

Also I posted a reply to weilke, but it said it was pending approval by a mod. This one posted instantly. Kind of confused about that.

Thanks Mark, Yes I read that thread, and started this one due to the date of that one. I thought maybe a new school had popped up somewhere, or possibly a member might have some other suggestions. I have talked to a friend who went to the school in Georgia, and he said he would probably...

I appreciate the reply, and yes it would be an awesome opportunity to start my own ag aviation service, but it is an incredibly costly field to enter. I have spoken with Billy Howell at Ag-Flight on the phone, and I plan on contacting Flying Tigers in Louisiana tomorrow. Do you have any...
