i was thinking of doing the whole learning in the USA thing.

But i never, im now learning at my local flying club, may take longer and may cost a bit more.

Ive got lessons booked every week, and its a joy, knowing the weekend is coming around because i have lessons.

Since it takes longer, then the payments are spread out, i pay on a monthly basis, and ive still got enough left over to live life.

The mains reasons i choose to do the flying here is, i want to train further on becoming a commercial pilot, so i choose to learn in the enviroment i would be doing my flying in.

Ive done 10hrs so far, and i feel, that if all the work im doing just now is crammed into 3 weeks, with the reading of all those books, i would feel a bit ill.

Flying can be very good and rewarding, but it can also be very dangerous if little things arn't learned, which i believe you can't learn all the little things in 3 weeks.
