MY OWN SITE!

Although Blogger has been good to me the past year I have decided since my sense of web development is pretty good that I would start my own website. Im pretty excited for it wont just have my blog but many other features like a forum page and much more. I hope you will visit it when you get a chance. As of right now its not ready but soon it will be a very cool website.
I will still try to post on blogger but can not gurantee anything.

Until Next Time,
Ian

Private Pilot Oral Exam Test Prep Book


I finally received my Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide I ordered on ebay.com today and I have to admit that it is a lot thicker than I thought. My objective is to carry this around with me and look over it every time I have down time. I consider it to be my bible till May (Checkride). I have started to look over it and I am happy to be able to answer most questions in there. I also see alot of questions I do not remember or have not learned. It is well worth the $8+shipping costs I spent on it and recommend any Student Pilot no matter what level to purchase this and look over it from time to time.

Private Pilot Time



I realized that my PPL checkride is fast approaching even though to you it may seem far away (May 11) and it makes me so happy to think I will be able to fly places with friends and family. For about a year now I have had my first destination as a Private Pilot set. I am an avid Flight Simulator guy and have met alot of friends via flight Sim (FSX). One including is the CEO of the well known Global Air Virtual Airlines. He is my age and we have been friends for a while. I decided when I get my license I will fly up to Cleveland and we will hang out. Cleveland is an awesome city, and for some reason it is one of my favorite places to be. Burke Lakefront Airport is in Cleveland and that is were I would fly to most likely.

The second most desired place to go is to EAA Airventure in Oshkosh, my friend from Dayton is receiving his PPL soon and wants to go up there as well. We figured if we want to go, why not go together. So there could be a chance if we find our skills proficient enough that we make the fun trip up there. Of course the downfall is the busyness of following all the ATC's procedures but hey it would be and experience.

I just cant waite for that day to take my checkride. I get excited just thinking about it. But we will just have to see, for now I'm just learning and having fun.

Until Next Time,
Ian

Weekly Discussion Topic

Alright so to spice up my blog I figured I would start adding discussion topics to see what all you guys think. So make sure to check in with me every week to write what you think about the topic. The way you can write your opinion is through commenting on the post. I will usually add my opinion at the end of the week.



This weeks topic: Which aircraft is the better kind to fly and train in, A High wing aircraft or a Low wing aircraft?

Until Next Time,
Ian
