Good for them!!! I bet they're happy. That would be great if I could get something like that. I will definitely look into it further.

That would be great, I will check into that.

I looked around but couldn't find anything on this, does it ever get to the point the mods don't have to approve your posts?

That's reassuring. Thanks!

I definitely plan on doing that.

I've never taken or been prescribed any medications. Well I was given a prescription for pain meds one time, but I didn't take them lol.

Is there a way that me studying on my own now can shave time and money off of whatever I have to do later, or is it like I have to take the whole course no matter how much I know? In what ways could I save money?

Thanks!!! I'm definitely interested in scholarships, I'll be needing to come up with all the money myself, so they will almost be necessary.

Also I did more reading into statistics, and overall I'd say they're more reassuring than anything. I was surprised, in 2011 42% of individuals tested after crashes tested positive for medications or drugs. In 2018, just 18.4% of crashes in the personal flying category were fatal. I thought it...

Today I ordered all the books everyone recommended!!! As was mentioned, some are available online but I don't like reading on the computer. I was able to shop around on eBay, and for all of them it came out to just under $80, which I thought was really good considering what I'm getting. The list...

Thanks!

For my part the risk is no deterrent at all. If it was up to me I'd already have a motorcycle lol. I think what you said is very well put; My parents are just sometimes worried about my safety. (Understandably.) I think they'll be fine with me flying, especially when they understand that you...

Are there any more reassuring statistics? They don't really want me driving a motorcycle lol. And I'm just curious, lets say you're flying over woods in the average small plane and the engine dies. What happens? Are you pretty much a goner? Is there a way to take it down safely on the trees?

So I've always wondered if I have ADHD so I got worried after reading some of your posts and took some online tests. I know they're not final, but they all said I have a low likelihood. I suppose I just have the fidgets lol!

Oooohhh I just looked and there's a couple close to me!

Nah it's alright. At least he gave me a very useful piece of info in the same sentence he said that, so, I guess it evens out! I believe and hope so. I don't know how much I'll be able to do online, but as much as I can I will do. Usually I'm self taught in my pursuits so I think I'd pretty...

I'm in Willow River, which is in Northeast Minnesota. We have a little airport (The Carlton County Airport) right by us so if I eventually ended up with an airplane it would be very convenient.

Thank you so much everyone! I'll check those out. I really appreciate it!

Hello everyone!!! My name is John, I am 16 years old. I will be 17 in April. I live in MN. Forgive me if I am putting this in the wrong forum. I have always wanted to be a private pilot and have a small plane, but never thought of it as more than a dream. I recently realized I could actually do...
