Long solo cross-country tomorrow! KFRG-KGON-KBDR-KFRG
Learned how to fly the 7x today. Its as memorable as the first solo.
10 hours in, PPL. The first few hours I was getting frustrated and humbled...thought it would/should come natural. Instructor said that was silly talk, that I was doing fine. Told myself if I didn't start to "get it" between 10-20 hrs that I would give it up. I'm starting to "get it" now. Awesome feeling. Feeling "connected" with the plane.
If you plan on getting your CFI take the CFI written as well. They are pretty much the same testPublicly letting everyone know that TODAY, I am officially going to get off my @$$ and start "REALLY" studying for the CPL written test. Been putting this of to long.. Hopefully this will motivate me.

As far as I remember the only difference between the CFI and CPL will be some questions on how to teach maneuvers. Other than that, the tests are pretty much the same. I'd say if you have the CPL study book that is sufficient enough.Hadn't given that any thought. My ultimate goal is to be a CFI. You say pretty much the same.. What are the main differences? Would the study materials for CPL be sufficient to pass that test?
New temp certificate for me. Added an SIC privilege.
What type?
DA-7X
Nice!
PPL student. 65 hours in. Getting close to check ride time. Had to switch from Piper to C172 right at about 40 hours. Due to our club changing planes. But I actually like the C172 now better. Nervous about the engine out drill but I have a good instructor so will just practice practice practice. This is a great site by the way. I read the latest posts every day.
Learning something new every day
Over the course of 2015 so far
- earned the right to sit in the left seat of the Grand Caravan without anyone in the right seat. Flew that thing quite a bit - Bahamas, FL, Grand Cayman
- got my Commercial AMEL
- got into the right seat of a Citation I with 9.5 hrs total multi (Van time helped a lot)
- got my 61.55 training done and added SIC privileges for CE-500 series, fly a Bravo
- wrapping up the same for CE-525, enjoying CJ1 and 2
Staying busy, learning new things. Feels good. Getting paid to do it feels double good
Totaled my truck and got laid off all with-in the month . Kinda grounded my training for know.
"'Tis but a scratch!"Yikes! Bad luck! At least keep up with your studying.
