Just wanted to say hello to everyone here on JC... let me introduce my self...
My name's Derek, 16 years old, senior in high school in the up coming year, from Toronto, Canada. Currently I have 23 hours in R22s and 2 hours in a B206 but i've just decided to switch over to Fixed Wing.
I've got my fan-flight booked for this up coming Saturday with Canadian Fliers at my local air strip - CNU8.
My short term goal is to complete the 25 hours needed for the RPL by late august, mid-term goal would be be complete my PPL by march of 09... Then maybe UND or Embry for aeronautical science or Ryerson for Aerospace Engineering while flying on the side to get my CPL, CFI, MEL ect... Ultimate goal is to one day fly for an major airliner like the many of you here :hiya:
Any tips, advice, info for a newbie pilot? am i making an horrible decision switching from Rotary to Fixed wing this late in the game? :banghead:
Thanks Guys!
Derek.
