Default RE: Some input regarding second plane choice.


ORIGINAL: Sneasle

As of now I don't have much stick time. I have soloed, but not attempted any landings yet. Despite this fact, I have the opportunity to pick up another plane in the nest few days. I have to buddies at work, each with a plane they would like to sell me.
I'm sorry, but if you have not landed, you have certainly NOT soloed. A solo consists of a complete flight operation in which YOU are the sole operator of ALL of the controls from the time the time the engine is started until the airplane is safely back on the ground and the engine turned off. This doesn't sound like what you did. Ideally it should also include all of the aircraft preparation/setup time as well to qualify.
