    Training Advice

    I assume you want to go to regionals/airlines. That means getting to 1500 hrs ASAP. If thats the case I would try to buy something cheap and fly my ass off. Buy a mini max, C150, Champ, etc...anything with an N number. While in the AF try to get done or at least far along on the instrument...
