    I dont understand…
    You can get your Solo Permit when you’re 14.
    You can doo all of the hours and schooling for your rec permit when you’re 14+…
    It doesnt matter how old you are, starting young is the best thing to do.
    That way you have a more flexible schedule, you dont have to pay alot of money in one year, etc.
    Btw, you’re going to have to spend those “Thousands” of dollars if you start early or “Late”
    Good day.

    I dare say the comms needs to be fitted with some sort of distribution unit to generate an Audio Out from both headset channels.

    You’d need to plug your video camera into the audio jack in your aircraft, I think only newer aircrafts are equipped with this jack.

    LOL, wait… I just realized the student is in the left seat, lol! I was watching thinking the guy in the left seat was the instructor… then again that wouldn’t make much sense would it?

    Cool! Get ready to spend 4 years and who knows how many thousands of dollars getting your license when you could have just started when you were 16 and got it done in a year!

    nice vid, im currently undergoing flight training at uni in Australia, my instructor seems to flare a little later in the landing and gets them really gentle, you seemed to baloon a bit.

    yes it is. i believe it is the most purchased aircraft in the world. very reliable, very long lasting. thats why you can still feel safe flying a 30+ year old plane.

    i should be starting my private pilot lessons soon. the only thing right now is the money, it is upwards of 10,000USD at MDW, the closest airport to my house. Every time I see these videos it just makes me want to go and fly. Thanks

    Seriously, to me it looked like the in guy in the right seat was the student, he look like a teenager from the back seat, and the dude on the left was the instructor, idk it just did,
    Take that as a compliment, you look like an instructor… Sorry to say your cameraman wasn’t very good.
