point taken but like hes allready said an instructor isnt an option for him for whatever reason so rather than slag him off and scare the guy to death ive tried as have others to give him a good choice of plane to give him the best chance of success!!.
me ive never been one to follow the crowd id like to think of myself as one of those pioneers like the wright brothers !!did they listen when everyone told them they were mad to try!!!!!.ive gotta say the pleasure of knowing you did it yourself cannot be compared to having someone show you how!!i realise some would rather do it the safe way and thats less expensive to some as im sure im probably in the minority in been succesfull doing it alone.personally i would aggree with you it is easier to get an instructor but if they would rather do it themselves i see no point trying to force them into it?.
