Hi,
I will start the Oxford Waypoint program in a couple of weeks.
I was wondering if somebody knows the model of the PA28 they are using in Goodyear.
For my hour building I flew on the PA28-161 (Cherokee Warrior II). And I thought it might be a good idea to review the technical details of the plane before starting the flight training.

It's only 13 hours on the pa28 for the Waypoint program.
But it's not luck I've done mine hour building on that plane for this particular reason (the only thing I wasn't sure is the exact model).

Then be prepared for a bit of a shock and a lot of hard work Dibies. The typically unstructured hour building from Chandler is not the best preparation for a short, intense modular CPL course. I'm frankly surprised that you didn't go and have a look around GYR and ask whilst you were in CHD.

I followed an integrated course before (Sabena Flight Academy, so very similar to OAA). I flew with them around 40 hours on DA20-c1 in Arizona and 30 hours IR FNPTII sim (DA42) in Brussels. Plus I did my ground school with them.
I had a problem with the last part of the landing (final / short final couldn't see that I was drifting from the center line). The problem was solved with Chandler, plus I increased my general airplane handling proficiency.
So believe me I'm more than aware of what you are talking about!
