Forward By Rod Machado CFII - Anyone who has earned a pilot certificate is intimately familiar with the cost of that endeavor. You invest your time and money-large blocks of daylight hours spread out over many months and literally thousands of dollars-to earn the privilege of taking a flying machine into the air. Your watch and wallet, however, say nothing about the blood, sweat, and tears involved in this enterprise. You had to overcome frustration, confusion, and self-doubt as you learned to move a piston-powered conveyance safely from one airport to the next. Congratulations to you Yours...
