Adam, your following Piper Classique's advice with great care and seriousness will reward you. You can't imagine how experienced and worthwhile that poster's advice is to you, and other new fliers. You are so luck that Piper Classique is taking the time to post to you....
Though you sound like you're being given a nice head start by your parent's contribution to your flying, ultimately, you have to make it on your own. Learning to greatly value and follow mentoring from posters like Piper Classique will serve you well.
Piper Classique is not offering you a menu from which to choose, but instead a crack in the door, with a bit of a view to what you're looking for - you have to force the door open, and move toward what you are being shown, or you will always be on the "didn't get through" side of that door. Learn to really struggle to gain the advancement you want. Your youth is the time to refine this valuable skill!
