[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 159186, member: 315"] I have quite a bit of flight time and I have an A&P mechanics license. It really doesn't matter what you learn to fly in but if it was me I would try to learn in something similar to what you would be flying on a regular basis. Whether it's something you own or rent. The glass stuff is easy as hell to use but the older analog stuff not so much. So it's probably better to learn that. you have to be careful buying older used aircraft. you have to know all of it's history. which is easy to do if you spend some time looking through the logs. Engine overhauls are brutally expensive so be very weary of high time engines. Paying for a good mechanic to inspect it first would be highly recommended. All that being said, there isn't a cooler feeling in the world than your first solo! [/QUOTE]
