Guest petegaerte Posted September 18, 2016 Posted September 18, 2016 Hi, i have been lurking on this forum as a guest for a long time now and finally decided to do the right thing - join. Now it's time for this old fella (just turned 60) to get some lessons and enjoy life. This is a great site and has lots of interesting discussions and comments from many knowledgable persons who are very willing to offer help, insight and advice. I know i will continue to enjoy reading and hope to enjoy flying. Cheers, P.G.

Butch Posted September 18, 2016 Posted September 18, 2016 I'm sure you will enjoy learning to be a pilot. I was 55 when I started flight training and treasured every moment . I have completed all my RAA endorsements (nav, passenger etc ) the next step is my RPL . Training is great fun, relax and enjoy the experience ...........the next thing you will be flying your first solo. Welcome.....there's lots to learn from this site! 1
