Flight Training Questions
So i know i have been posting on here a few times about flight training but getting my PPL... And I am serious about getting it I am just looking for some advice.
I found an instructor in the area who seems to be very excellent. She has 4000 hours so it wouldnt be one of those instructors who mess around to try to build their hours on your dime. Anyway the only downside is she charges $50 an hour which seems to be steep. I live in the Dallas Fort Worth area btw.
Anyway I will get down to my question. I work a full time office job. M-F 8-5:30... Soooo I am limited on my training to Saturday and Sunday. From what i read only being able to train 1 day a week is not a good thing because it costs more money in the long run since you can not retain the info and going a week in between lessons. Also if there was bad weather one weekend then that would set me back a whole week as well. Sooo I was considering waiting until April'ish 2010 to start my training... From what i see the sun sets at approx. 8:10pm in april and from my understand students can fly up to 1 hour after sunset....
What i am getting at is if i wait until the spring of 2010 I would be able to train a day or two afterwork since the sun does not set till later and also weekends. If i start now i will be limited to only weekends because by the time i get out of work and get to the airport it will be to late in the day.
I know a blabbed on but just looking for advice.
Thank you.
