Zordah,
that's crazy stuff....I'm the same age, in the same city and did my intro flight today (I was allowed to take off and the fly the thing a bit - Cessna 172) and I have a proper lesson tomorrow - this time in a Jabiru.
good luck with your training!!
and if you dont mind telling me, where are you doing it, what are your reasons for choosing them, etc..??
cheers,
PP
