RECOVER
T-41C Instructor
My dad purchased me a first ride for Christmas. I waited till my semester was over and this beautiful day to embark. After 30 minutes in a simulator we fired up the real thing. After all the preflight checks i was given all of the controls for takeoff, not the original lift off and hover, but to go off the field. Hearing the instructor call out ETL and seeing ETL come to life and climbing out was the happiest feeling i've had in aviation in a long time (beats the hot air balloon ride i took last year).
Lots of planes flew by at the towered airport and i felt a little out of place not being in an airplane.
As far as adding on rotorcraft to a commercial or future cfi-a ticket, how easy are heli jobs to get and do they pay decently to see an investment of commercial add-on through?
P.S. I can't hover LOL.
