Due to age, I'm waiting to get my private license hopefully this summer in the 172R I'm currently training in. I've just completed my 2nd solo XC and have to complete night and instrument requirements now. However, I'm thinking for the future. I'll be a senior in high school next August so I have one more year to go of putting around New England before I head to college. I'm hoping to go to a flight college as well.
What do you recommend that I fly during the next year until college after I get my license? I don't think I should go for the instrument because of complications with classes in college where they would make me take the instrument courses again, and therefore waste my money.
A. Flying the local flight school's 172R still (out of PVD)
B. Get my HP up at BED and chug around in a 182T
C. Fly at the local school at PVD in the DA40 w/ G1000
D. Go all out, get my complex in an Arrow, get my twin in a Duchess, and fly the twin VFR around NE.
Any of them would be fine with me as long as im in the air . I might want to take some people sometimes as well and that R model gets a little sluggish with just 3.
One of my first posts so don't crush too hard
Thanks! Steve
