@MrRockinrocker The only reason you should ever get a recreational permit is if you are too young to get your private, go for your private the rec permit is a huge waste.

@aviator06 but if you join air cadets you get your pilots licence for free

Nicely doen. Radiotraffic=cool. You guys in US are lucky, here in EU the rules are more strict. Enjoy! One day I'll fly with you.

how much on average is it to maintain your license? I am looking to get a recreational permit and wondering how much it would be, I am a canadian, but id assume it would still be a ballpark figure for americans cool video!

@MrRockinrocker Well really it all depends on how much you want to spend and fly a year. If you are asking how much it costs to get your license you are looking at spending around $6,000 average. I wouldn't waste your time with the recreational license, just go get your Private. It's only a little more work and you have a lot less restrictions then the recreational.

Very cool vids. Were you aiming for the 1000ft markers? How long have you had your license?

I was aiming for the Runway Aiming Point Markings which is right where I touched down. No since in making a short field landing because it would make for a long taxi. I've been flying since I was 14 and i'm 22 now so i've been licensed for a few years now.

I flew a cessna 172 yesterday. It was so cool. The control is very sensitive but its cool when you set on full throttle and level your alltitude. You get a good feeling in your body!

Yea the C172 is a great aircraft, very forgiving. It's hard to put the C172 in a situation where it can't recover on it's own including spins.
