It is done, my first training session for MPL is booked

[Hotdog]

Hi everyone,

After many years on contemplating whether I would do my PPL or MPL, after years and years of dreaming, reading and hangar talk, I have finally booked my first training session! :D

Thanks for all the opinions and ideas, and for the wealth of information presented by everyone on this forum that helped to shed light on the plethora of questions I had, even without them knowing it.

I am thinking of keeping a diary of my training, and might host it somewhere someday. Well, the seed is in the ground, and now the watering and nurturing starts, and I am looking forward to every second of it!

Great to have you in the air....My tip....read as many of the accident reports you can get your hands on, listen to the "OLD" pilots and don't underestimate the value of the safety tips given during training

Have fun.

Thanks for the replies and the advice! I have set up a blog space to easily log my progress.

I am by nature a wary person, so I grasp any accident report I can get my hands on - thanks, will keep my eyes and ears open.

Hi George, ek hou maar 'n lae profiel by daardie omie!

Hi George, ek hou maar 'n lae profiel by daardie omie!

Send him a bottle of something for Xmas. My Kontak (Agtermekaar Taniie) kry n moerse blomme rankskikking elke jaar uit die blou. Kos basie min en sy kry beter deals as what my besigheid se Bank bestuurder kry en die besiheid het all die pounde...
