    I got my (Private) in 1991 and was there in 1990, 91 and 92. Chrissy's father was a builder of experimental and had flown there a few times. I haven't flown in years, (Military) got in the way and prices $$$$ :eek:. I did my fight time over a years time and did ground school in my home, took the written test in Atlantic city FAA center. :yes: I only have 271 hours in VFR private. Sadly, I can't afford it and forget the price of a plane, but it's just like owning a larger boat! BOAT "Break Out Another Thousand". :rofl: :lol:

    The 3 main things required for flying are:
    1. power
    2. Lift
    3 Money

    Back in the 60’s and 70’s my dad was a CFI, I have allot of backseat time in 170’s and 172’s. I have been in Ercoupes, a Fairchild 24, J3 Cobs and Aeronca 7AC Champs. I was in my early teens near the end of the flying and did log enough hours to solo I was too young. I also am left eye dominant and couldn’t pass medical back then. I do not have the $$ to do any
    flying currently but hope to take
    Some more duel soon.
