Just wanted to drop a line to those of you who've encouraged me to continue. Today around 5 pm I got down from the IFR checkride successfully! It feels really good to have it under the belt - and to be done.

Great job! I started working on mine last February but a certain four-engined project ended up taking priority. Hopefully this fall?? At any rate, congratulations on a fine achievement. Scott |

Way to go Ryan. Would like to read what method you used, what FBO/school etc. Just remember that rating is just a tool, gravity is not impressed with it and the ground is still just as hard. |

Thanks for the words Bill! That idea has been very real to me during this training, especially with all of the tough losses we've had over the last month while I was wrapping up the rating. I did the training at Sky Safety at historic Stinson Field here in San Antonio (it's the second oldest continuously operational GA field in the entire US) http://www.skysafety.com/ and really appreciated a good instructor (Jason). They convinced me to do the Part 141 track for the training. All of my ground training was one-on-one although they do offer classes as well. We used the Jeppesen Curriculum and flew Symphony SA-160s - which are nice planes. Too bad they're not being produced currently. There's more over on the webpage I put up. Ryan |
