i learned to fly in a gentle lady glider no instructor. Hand tosses then low hi start flights. after a year of soaring i built flew and still have a goldberg sr falcon. this was 26 years ago. now im into ww2 fighter bombers bipes and helis all without being in a club or instructor. I have my own private field so that makes all the difference. Power planes make everything happen faster. dont overcontrol and try anything other than flying the pattern. learn to land smoothly. then get a 4 star 40 (tail dragger) master that and you can get into a tf p-47. This will take several years as mastery takes a while
