  1. I currently live in Mississippi, but I'm from Alabama. I went to my local airport today and talked with a few different instructors and some guys that just "hang around" the airport. I, eventually, decided to take the intro to flying flight, and now I have the bug real bad. Of course, the instructor took off and landed, but once in the air I got to do most of the flying. Much easier than I thought it would be, but I know much more goes into it than just flying around. I actually do think that the R/C flying has helped. I felt like I knew what the major parts of the plane were and what purpose they had. When the instructor was walking me through the pre-flight checks, I was able to understand what he was talking about. Without the R/C experience I feel I would have been a little lost. Now, I just need to find a way to fund this new hobby.
  2. Yes, the USA. Thanks for the welcome and I'm 27. I feel old, but I guess I have a few more years ahead of me.
  3. Hello all, My name is Ben and I live in the Southeastern part of the States. I have been interested in flying for several years and have flown only R/C planes at this point. I've never taken lessons and really have no idea what all it takes to become a pilot. I would love to know more about the different aspects of the hobby to help me get a good understanding on how far I would want to really take it. So, you can expect me to be doing quite a bit of reading and question asking. Thanks:big_grin:
