Android -you should have spoken to us all sooner!
I know plenty of Ancien Aviator at my club, some still learning at your young age!!
I took 2 years to get my PPL, (age 32-34) including a 9 month sabbatical coz I ran out of dosh, and celebrated ten years of flying, since my wife bought my trial lesson, this April.
To quote Sir Norman Foster (architect)on flying: "No matter how many times you do it, there is still a sense of absolute wonderment"
I'm always sorry to hear if somebody gives up.
PS Can I have the DC's?
