  1. Hey Jerra. As circumstances haven’t allowed me to start flight training yet:crying:, hitting the books is all I have to keep me sane. I’m having better time with the BAK book by making notes and drawing pictures of the parts I’m having trouble remembering as was suggested earlier in the thread. It really helps engrain it into your memory. As opposed to the ‘Readings’ as I said in my first post. And of course keeping up to date with the forum chatter.

     

     

  2. Oh for God's sake!!! Get real people... Just stick your fingers in your ears if you wan't and it should all just go away... but do it to your detriment... The growing group of pilots and instructors who are refusing to fly behind the product must all be imagining things...lol

    Look, its another rotax flyer talking about how bad the jab is.

  3. no problems here now. Nice place to live and fly.

    No problems? Maybe a little bit of an overstatement. But I guess it wasn't too bad a place to grow up. I did get to go to natfly every year. My dad still lives there as well as my wifes family. (sorry to hijack your thread mudjeep).

     

     

  4. Has anyone looked up the Tafe course advertised in the Dec-Jan mag?

    55 hours over 13 weeks with an $800 price tag. Would it be any better than just reading all the textbooks at home? I've read an older version of the ATC BAK book I borrowed from the library. Then I bought Bob Taits BAK book (which was ok but I liked the ATC better). And then for Christmas I got the ATC Student Kit which I've just got stuck into. The first time I read it, it was all a jumble of numbers and abbreviations with only 1/2 of it getting thru. With each subsequent reading it's all really sinking in and it didn't cost $800.

  5. As a newcomer I have noticed, amongst people that I have told about my new hobby, that there is a real stigma still associated with flying ultralights.

    When I told my tafe teacher I wanted to learn to fly ultralights he argued with me by trying to say they can't fly over 500 feet. That was the rules years and years ago. People only know what there told, and believe it until they are told otherwise.

     

    And the press dont help.
