Thanks Dana.
I really want to go thru the EAA Academy, so obviously fixed wing. But at some point I would like to also fly Gyroplanes, as a Sport Pilot of coarse.
If you've decided that Sport Pilot is the type of flying you want to do, is the training for Sport Pilot generic? Meaning, do you first need to decide what type of aircraft, say, fixed wing or gyro,...
Great write up about the Academy in the November issue of EAA's Sport Aviation magazine. Looks like it exceeded everyone's expectations and multiple 12 person Academy's are being planned for 2017,...
I mainly brought this question up because I think it's the hardst part. With some studying you can get your Pilots ticket, with some skill you can build your airplane, but, other than where you built...
Thats a great suggestion actually.
Thanks Marty, nice little town Bryan is. Back in 2003 at the end of a week at AirVenture I drove an RV down to Bryan to spend a couple days at the Hummel Aviation factory (I was lucky enough to spend...
Hi Eric.
Just trying to set in place some kind of 'flight plan' for the future. I know what level ticket and where I want to get my training (you do to :) ), which LSA I want to home build, now...
Thanks guys.
My original plan was to live on a property with its own runway (like a gazillion other pilot wannabes no doubt). However, after allot of research I think Carl is right, pretty much a...
Hi Dana, thanks for the link, I'll check it out.
Ya, removable, not folding wings. I'd also like to build a Sonex Onex one reason being the folding wings, but it's cost prohibitive.
Thought...
For what seems like years now I've been mulling over a dillema.
I love aviation, I know the kind of basic 'around the patch, low and slow' kind of flying I'm most attracted to, I know Sport Pilot...
Me neither, only because it too general.
There is a difference between being a customer and being a military cadet or airline new hire. The customer can take his business elsewhere if he feels...
Hi Bill,
Not sure if you were referring to me but I agree with you.
EAA's SP Academy being a concentrated 3 week coarse is actually one of the things I'm most interested in. Three weeks of...
Looks like the first Academy is in the books and plans are being made for 2017.

Hi Howard, nope, your not the only one. My Asus router kept blocking access to this site warning me of Malware. I had to force the router to always allow viewing of this site. Don't know why.
Cool, thanks Jndz.
Thanks Jndz.
I'm hoping to get in the EAA Academy and they're using 162's. I won't be using a flight sim to learn how to fly but I thought if I could find an accurate model of the C162 I could at...
Jndz, what setting(s) are you referring to that allow you to use the Flight1 C162 in FSX more reliably? Thanks
Mike
Thanks Todd.
Thanks for bringing these questions to light.
Sorry, still a little confused about 'improved sites'.
If I remember right, you can only reserve them online, but even so, because there are just...
Hi Jndz,
Years ago when I was actively simming, I remember having a problem with mainly just one of the aircraft I had bought and downloaded. Unlike the other airplane models I had, this...
Hi Frank, I totally agree. I generally don't like the short cut, 'you'll be a Black Belt in 2 weeks' bull, but the EAA is a pretty solid outfit.
One thing I meant to say as far as group learning camps or Academy's.
I'm a self taught drummer with very few formal lessons. Myself, along with a couple of friends of mine that are also self...
Had a great talk about the Academy with Eric (thanks!), I'm a bit too late for this inaugural class but I told him to put me on the list for a following Academy.
After doing an Internet search I...
Sure.
