Well at first i thought i didn't need an instructor and maybe i don't but with the knowledge up here and it's free advise,i don't think you can go wrong.I would rather get somebody to help me before i went out and destroyed my plane and who knows what,or who i could crash into makes me do some thinking but i'm getting to like this sport and i will fly my own plane someday soon i hope.Yes there are some old farts up here and maybe they don't like the newbies but life is life and i'm not going there.The only thing i can see is when somebody posts for advice they get at least three sometimes with about the same answer but maybe,just maybe some of them had a bad day and have to vent without thinking before hand.

This is a great sport but so is live so enjoy it.
