Getting ready to be a pilot
Although I may be the worst driver in the world, I’m actually a decent driver in the air! I’ve been taking flying lessons for 16 months now. And I am getting ready to take the pilot’s test. I have almost 60 hours flying time and my instructor said I’m ready today.
Some people think that a 16 months is a short time to get a pilot’s license – it’s not. There are many people who learn to fly in a month or two. I didn’t have the time or money to pay for that many lessons in that short of a time. It’s an expensive hobby! I didn’t realize it was so expensive when I started, but I have wanted to be a pilot since 1999. I flew with a friend of mine who let me hold the controls for a minute made me realize that I wanted to do it.
Anyway, I am excited and nervous to take the test in the next few weeks. This summer we’ll be flying all over!
Hugs,
marlene
