How to find time to fly? I have gotten so busy, just picked up two more projects and realized it’s been 50 days. On the schedule for tomorrow, but geez 😒

Prohibited or “prohibited”? E.g. something they are actually willing to fight you on?

All work and no play... or start flying yourself to clients :)

Prohibited by the company. I need to go independent again.

Something I cannot expense and which would draw attention to if I traveled without having airfare.

Many companies consider it a legal risk because if you make a bad go call and crash, there is a near automatic assumption that work pressures influenced you to go and therefore the company is liable. Therefore no flying in any form on company time.

On the plus side, had a really nice flight that night. Got my landing sight picture dialed in again and pulled off a really sweet short field about 3 hours after sunset.

Hello if anyone’s there 👋 I’m wondering what some of you have done after getting your PPL?

Looking to eventually take the plunge, but want to know what things look like beyond PPL.

Looking to choose a place to fly out of for getting my PPL. Would you recommend a program based out of a controlled or uncontrolled airport? It sounds like you get more flight time out of the uncontrolled (less busy), but less experience liaising with ATC. Both options are comparable cost-wise and about the same distance from my house.

Any other air simulator pilots out there lol?
