PDiddy Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi Everyone. I'm new and just started learning to fly RAA near Brisbane. I've been researching the different options for training GA vs RA, integrated or non etc, and considering whether commercial flying (airline) would be for me or not. Thanks to your contributions and Pprune, I've learned a lot. At this point, it looks like RAA is the way to go to get started, so wish me luck and I look forward to learning from and contributing to these forums. Cheers PDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi and welcome PDD. It is an awesome adventure you have begun, like Geoff asked, where are you learning, and what are you learning in? Yep, I agree, RAA is a good way to go. Affordable lessons and planes. And all your training can be used towards a higher license if that's the way you want to go. Cheers, Tony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Started with Rod at Flightscope in the Eurofox. Also since Im at Wyaralong dam most Saturdays for the kids rowing I checked out Dave at Airsport Qld Boonah. Dave has a Technam P96 Golf. Dave also has a Tecnam P2008. I did a couple of hours in it, with Dave in the right hand seat, until I decided to pursue aircraft ownership instead of hiring. It is a nice aircraft to fly though. The castoring nose wheel was interesting to taxi with...I have also overflown Boonah a few times now during my cross country navs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrod01 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Welcome PDD. Reckon Boonah will work a treat. Flew with Dave late last year and loved the P2008 so much we are in the midst of purchasing one. Dave was great so we will be doing our navs with him, something we are really looking forward to. Cheers Des Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update - had a great flight with Dave at Airsport Boonah QLD on Saturday morning. The Scenic Rim region is a great place to learn to fly too. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
