ryoder 1,590 #2 November 4, 2007 Whatever you do, do not make the same mistake I did and rent a 182. I always hated the 172 after that. I didn't realize how a 182 performed when it wasn't stuffed full of jumpers. "There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

jonstark 8 #11 November 4, 2007 That's great! Enjoy it. You would enjoy a few hours in a glider too. It was a real big help for understanding some important aspects of flying in your area. You are going to be flying in the mountains and I would highly recommend some time in a glider at close quarters with them to get familiar and more comfortable with them and what winds do there. Have fun!!!! jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
