Hello wwejosh,
Glad you enjoyed your TIF and welcome to the PPRuNes forums, i did my TIF at the RVAC in '89 in a clapped out old Cherokee.
On the day though it was the best aircraft a fella could ask for! i still remember the excitement today of being told "your controls".
Be careful tough, flying is a financially draining drug! it costs a fortune to maintain and it will occupy your every waking moment.
Your in good company and not alone, if perhaps i may a quote from Leonardo Da Vinci;
"For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
Happy Landings!
