Awesome, thanks for the support guys, I really needed it since I didn't know if it was a good plan or not. The only thing that's killing me now is just to be patient, but I know it's gonna be a long career path!
Also, do you guys know of any books or reading material that I should study and learn before I start my PPL training? I'm really trying to keep costs at a minimum which means I'm going to try to shoot for the lowest amount of hours that I can to pass the checkrides, so I need to be prepared even before I start. I've been reading over the flight simulator x tutorials and making sure I get all the concepts of VOR and IFR navigation, and stuff like that, but I'm not exactly sure what's going to actually transfer over to real flying.
