Nan. What I am learning. A plane flys itself....it basically is aerodynamics.... It is basically a glider... The thing is is to learn how to handle a "stall" or whatever
and not fight it. This way..it lands itself. I'm doing a lot of reading on this...plus the lessons.... Not sure if I will go very much futher with lessons...BUT...I will admit...this is more fun then driving through Columbus rush hour traffic..... Atleast...I don't gave to worry about idiot drivers. As a rule...Pilots are serious!

I know the small planes are not as dangerous as the jets and larger planes. A piper usually can land without power unless it gets smacked in a storm. I'm glad you are enjoying the lessons, and you're right about the traffic. I have to agree on that. I hate city traffic.
