Thanks Glendale.

I didn't realize you were at a legacy. Yours sounds quite a bit different than WhatsaLizad's. Sounded like he is able to drop trips fairly easily as long as he was senior enough.

Yes, my dad is instructing me. I pay for the cost of owning the airplane and he pays for the fuel. It will cost roughly what it cost him, and that was in the 80's! Because I can get college credit for ratings I am actually saving money by flying vs. being in class. The way I'm doing it, my flying is so cheap that its costing me less to gain 30+ credits flying than it would be sitting in class. So if I decide to do something else, start a business, etc., I won't be out.
