Flying lessons. (56k no-no)

I took my tax return and did something that I always wanted to do... I took a flight lesson, by friend Jim came along with and took some pics. none of me tho cause well I don't take a good one any ways..


Thornton at 2000 feet


taxing out


random office building but that my wing


Jim said we were like 4 feet from the ground at this point (landing)


taxing back to the school

was in the air for about 45 minutes, I had control for all but about 3 minutes. I took off, and flew around, my instructor took control to avoid a bit of traffic, which I spotted, he also did a 50degree bank to show me what the plane could do, and he wouldn't let me land.. but I did most of the descent only giving up control like 25 feet out or so

looks pretty sweet, so how long till you fly jets?

35 hours to get my private, another 21 for my instrument rating, 16 more to get my commercial, need to become an instructor to build hours... thats 13, need to get my multi-engine that's 20, then I need at least 1000 hours to be qualified for jet school, and that's like 50 hours... by the way, I have 1 hour total flight time .7 in a plane and .3 in an FAA approved simulator

That looks like so much fun! Im jealous

Anyways good luck getting your flying "licenses"

what about space ships?

900000000 hours... and your car.. 4 hours
