They're better at what they specialize in. I'm sure an Alaskan bush pilot is better at flying in and out of tiny strips, but the Fighter jock would eat him alive in BFM.

Fly as a safety pilot for those working on their instrument rating, and work on your commercial/cfi.

Get airborne and then try some climbs, descents, and turns using only power, trim, and your feet. It's quite easy.

:lol: How about control malfunctions? Jammed ailerons/rudder.

No, but it's a lot closer than 1.5mil for an Evolution.

Or for a less expensive 4 seat option than the Evolution, the Lancair IV piston:

Lancair/Glasair

Can't stress this enough! I used the ASA books for my Private/Instrument/CFII written tests. I purchased the commercial materials from shepard and it cut the time needed to study down immensely! I decided to keep using them for the FOI.

Agreed with Jason, going from the X to the A20 for me was quite an upgrade.

I'm a son, and always learning to fly? :dunno::D If your son has an iPad/Foreflight subscription give it to him..he will learn to love it.

It saves some time in fast airplanes, in the Lancair if we're descending and are given a straight in we usually request an overhead, that way you can come in at 180kts, about midfield pitch left or right, put a couple g's on the plane and pitch up to go from 180kts to gear speed (122kts) in a...

I'd do commercial single before multi, then go to someone like this http://www.traverseair.com/multi.php to knock out the multi commercial. Both of these after the IR obviously.

I think it would take more than 4 actually :mad2: All in good fun though! The planes are made for totally different missions. :yes:

I love passing twins in a single sipping 8.5 GPH :D

You will want to get at least your Private before you graduate, which shouldn't be a problem as you have time. As far as going active duty to get a pilots slot you will end up with whichever airframe they assign you to based on how you perform in pilot training. The Air National Guard is also...
