Hello all,

I recently got my PPL and have amassed a whopping 51 hours TT !

I am ready for regionals!

On a more serious note, I have been reading the threads about low hour options. It seems getting my instrument, then CFI are the most "suggested" route to take for building time. I think thats a great idea, except I am a terrible teacher.

I am thinking short term to get my total 50 hours of XC time needed to begin IFR would be to buddy up with someone with the same goal. Now I have asked everyone under the sun at my local FBO about sharing time/getting time. (Why is there not a regional section on this forum!? I need to know who is local looking to split costs with!)

Do you think this is my best option for getting my time for XC to begin my IFR training?
