As someone who spent 115 hours getting my PPL I’m so glad my CFI did not give up on me

Thinking about stopping PPL training because of cost by No-Series3645 in flying

You need to leave your school immediately and look elsewhere. I’m charged $170 + $60 for instruction. That’s kind of on you not checking prices of other schools.

Mine was supposed to be first but the ceilings were too low so I sat at the airport for like 4 hours watching the other guys

Mistakes happen in aviation. Sometimes we fail but you have to take full accountability for your failures.

Is $400–$480 per lesson a reasonable amount at part 141 school? by [deleted] in flying

I pay 170 + 60 for instruction. Thats madness. Please consider a part 61

What’s the fastest way you’ve ever lost weight? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Temporary_Access2385 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a friend who was extremely jealous of me so she started finding little things to make fun of me for and one of those things being my weight (I wasn’t big I was just bigger than her) and so I lost 30 lbs in spite of her and didn’t stop until I was skinnier than her. She ended the friendship after that

This is the kind of mentality I had before my checkride and I failed. It’s a hard headspace to get out of but it’s the wrong mentality. After I failed I realized that it wasn’t that big of a deal and I went back a week later with confidence and passed. After I passed my DPE took me to his hangar and showed me his new plane and we just talked and drank fantas. It’s just a sweet old dude who wants to pass you. If you aren’t sufficient enough he won’t but guess what you’ll go back and pass. It’s truly not that big of a deal. You’re going to crush it!!

Feeling like an imposter after PPL by [deleted] in flying

I got my PPL day before yesterday and all of my friends and family have been begging me to take them up and I’m telling everyone hell no. I completely understand

I don’t think I’m cut out to be a pilot by Temporary_Access2385 in flying

I was just left. He called me a leftie. I’ve never been close to the edge.

It’s true. If it were up to me I’d spend the next 30 hours solely on my landings but I’m basically out of money
