Scott-EP Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Well im starting my flying lessons this week after putting it off for a few years!Was supposed to have my First one this afternoon but got postponed for bad weather so got it This Friday coming instead! Abit nervous but also really Excited! Even though I won't be doing much on my first lesson apart from really basic controls during flight!But been watching some videos on youtube anyway and found this one quite funny!! Just hoping i don't do a similar thing when i come round to landing for the first time ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 That's pretty cool! I'd love to be able to say I can fly but I'd be too afraid of heights to even try Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Quite an expensive game eh.Isn't one lesson a month quite low, or is that adequate for flying lessons? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scott-EP Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 I'm not really sure to be honest.. I think it depends on how much money the person has that's doing the lessons the more money you have the more hours you could do per month but at the moment im not earning enough to beable to do anymore then 1 or 2 a month..They do a pay up front deal for your Private Pilots license it come's to almost £8000 including all books and that.. I cannot afford this haha! so will just do it pay as i go unless i win the lottery hahaI've always wanted to be a pilot.. Wanted to join the RAF ever since i was about 7 but had an accident a few years ago effecting my eye sight so got refused as a pilot but i can still become a commercial pilot so going to do thatMainly just to beable to say something like this!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWDBh0fQ1ug...feature=related Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I see where you're coming from mate, more money, quicker you learn.Looks fun, but not something I would want to do. And that landing was quite funny to watch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
