  1. Wear a parachute just in case you .........................


  2. some quick tips. Dont be nervous, ask questions, and if you dont get it right the first time dont beat yourself up, and the second most important thing is have fun. the most important thing, dont crash... good luck

  3. yeh!...dont try to go outside to smoke a cigarette!...

  4. The best tip I can give you is try not to be overwhelmed. There will be a lot going on. Don't expect to take it all in during your first lesson. A good instructor should start off giving you an overview of things and then structure your subsequent lessons to focus on different aspects of the aircraft and flight as you learn. Its a lot like learning to ride a bicycle; at first it seems impossible and then it starts coming together (and there are no training wheels to remove).

  5. XP Pilot is exactly right.  Flying isn't complex but there are A WHOLE LOT of elements.   Many things to learn but none of them are especially difficult.

    By the way, there are three process steps leading to a perfect landing every time - the steps are simple, easy to understand and they work.  Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.

  6. Keep the greasy side down , ask alot of questions, listen to everything that the instructor tells you and have alot of fun !

  7. Just remember,

    NO QUESTION IS A SILLY QUESTION!

    It's better to ask what may seem like a dumb question, than make a silly mistake!

    Don't be nervous if you can help it! Remember, the instructor actually wants you to pass, so he should explain everything step-by-step at a pace that suits you. If not, simply ask him/her about it, I'm sure they won't mind!

    Above all, have fun and try not to do anything silly!

  8. Have Fun! It's awesome. I was nervous too on my first flight.

  9. Awesome.

    Do NOT be nervous

    ASK many questions flight instructors like that

    Show what you know

    Ask to fly

    MOST important...........HAVE FUN!

  10. The most important thing is to have fun and enjoy it.
