edit: sorry Daminal - we posted at the same time.
Folks,
Very interesting talk.
Some of it I understand, some of it .....
Am not a real pilot but sat in a P-51 on display at Franklin Institute right after WWII. Took a couple of rides in a Tri-Pacer as a teenager and studied for my license (not sure what they called them in the '50s) but cost of lessons was about $25, way out of reach for someone making about $3-4 a week.
So I read and learn from Rod Machado's Private Pilot Handbook.
I can dream can't I ?
I got a machine that lets me fly virtually anyplace I want and in any airplane :-)
Enough talk - I do better with pictures.
