| Senior Member | Hey guys, first of all I want to say that my profession was engraved in concrete yesterday, I definately want to become a pilot . I flew a Piper Warrior II I don't know if it was just the experience but this was a great plane. Is this a common training plane? He had me do stalls (they're not as scary as I thought) and high bank turns, all in all I had a BLAST . They also just received a brand new DA40-180 Diamond Star, is this a good plane, my instructor said I could also fly in this one.I also took a few pictures of Gillette Stadium, home of the brand new dynasty, SuperBowl Champs New England Patriots. ![]() http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=2/451...8.jpg&s=x5 |

| Glad you enjoyed it. Warrior IIs are great aren't they? My aunt used to own one of those. |

| Congrats Remember you might not always feel so concrete about being a pilot at times but stick in there and things work their way out ![]() |

| Congrats on your first...I must admit I think my second was more eventful for me as my instructor was very big on doing almost everything. Didn't actually fly until the second time. Go go little 152 n0SU26!!!!!!! |
