Anyone watched "secret Millionaire" ? Amazing things can and do happen, don't give up on them yet.



I have been told of an 18year old who got her driving licence on a Porsche 911 with the explanation "after all that is all I will be driving".

Progressive training
 

Brilliant Stuff

I know of at least 3 that recked their 911 machines, and 1 that didn't survive it....
My kids started with some heavy diesel car...

In the example you quote, isn't it sad she'll only know one car....

I really think that it is useful even necessary to go up the scale. I personally also think that this is necessary in the given case - EC135.

The economics are clear as many suggested.

Looking "at the please your self" part of it: Here I would say, try it and lets talk again next year... Again a reason not to start to fiercely.

I could not agree with you more Delta3 about one should start at the bottom how else can you appreciate the top if all your references are based on the top. I mean how do you know you progressed etc.

911 I would not dream of buying one.

There is some very good advice in these last three pages. Forget the posts on cars any idiot can drive infact any idiot can fly but not everyone can operate an Aircraft safely. The 135 being a twin and having an advanced cockpit would give a workload that an inexperienced pilot would just not be able to cope with, remember flying the aircraft is the easy bit its the other bits that are the problem and until you can fly the aircraft as if second nature the more work load there is.

As has been said try to find someone that will give you some time on a Gazelle or similar, it will give you adequate power and is a wonderfully simple aircraft to operate but like all they can be a handfull.

Why a 135 anyway? the main operators in the Uk are Police and without being ex military you have little chance.
