So why are you in pilot school in Tulsa again. I though all the pilots went to school in Florida. Mazdadrifters cousin just rolled into town adn is in Flight School.



You should transfer here.

Probably the two best aeronatical schools in the country are Spartan or Embry Riddle. I think that Spartan has a better program. Plus I can't remember if its Embry or one of the other well known schools in Florida, you don't even start flying till about 2 years into the program. The pilots i've talked to all say that Spartan with its reputation to produce good pilots defenitly gives an edge in interviews. Just my 2 cents though.

learning on a 152?



I'm getting my PPL currently in a 172....then it's off to Laughlin AFB for SUPT. I'm suprised at how many pilots and students are on the rotary forums that I've just run into lately. Weather is kicking *** on my progress though...



nice truck - good luck with it

Were those the flight students or the mechanic students? I know that Spartan is really strict when they accept flight students, it was obvious by the process I had to go through and the people I fly with. But the North campus with the mechanic students kinda scares me to think these guys are gona be working on my plane someday.

Yeah i'm stuck in a 152 for my private, then I upgrade to a 172 and the seminole for my instrument and commerical. We're actually in the process of buying a bunch of new twin engine planes too, so more twin engine time is always a plus.
