TD Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 6. "RE: new member here" 09-04-02, 12:44z  Welcome to the forum! And to the special world of those who fly airplanes. You'll never regret your decision to leave the ground. I soloed at age 66 and am now taking instructions in flying Ultralights (69) so your age should be no barrier to your final goal. Folks who study these things say we 'more mature' folks *understand* flying better and faster but it does sometimes take longer for us to translate that knowledge into physical movement and muscle memory. You'll probably hit some points that are more problematic than others but, don't give up. It'll all work eventually. The first time Jerry went up, the instructor kept checking the aircraft for the source of a terrible grinding sound. Turns out it was just Jerry's joints popping as he stretched... (ducking and running slowly away...) "TD - Virtual FAA investigators are on line 2, AGAIN!!!" Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
