Welcome Chris, good to hear another flying starter joined the group.. I also started flying a few weeks ago. 4.5 hours up only. Im learning in a Jab 160.. its such a thrill.

 

Keep the updates coming with your progress.

 

Cheers

Hi PB, not going to get into are you a Bob or a Chris? Welcome anyway. Glad to have another local join us. What made you choose the SportStar over the SportCub that Martyn has down there? I found the 'Star a bit mundane compared to the Jab LSA I fly out of Murray Bridge, and the 'Cub' was so easy for a tail dragger. So much easier to land than the Jab.

Hi Chris,

 

You are a youngster at 47! I started a couple of years ago at 53 and wished I'd started a lot sooner! As others have said - you will love it.

 

Good luck with your training - keep us informed of your progress.

 

Cheers

 

Neil

I'm a late starter myself at 46 and like most I wish I'd got around to it sooner. Enjoy the site, there's a lot to be gained from keeping a regular eye on it.

 

And the people around here are real friendly.

 

Cheers

G'day Chris,

 

It seems a fair few of us started learning in our mid 40s :-)

 

I learnt on the SportStar at Aldinga but fly a Jabiru 160 these days. I do miss the Sporty though.
