I may be misinterpreting what you are saying, but I think you might be confusing the 40 hours required to get your license (is it still 40 hours these days?)with the 40 hours of solo flight on an experimental before it can carry passengers, including you and and an instructor. Meaning that weather you have your license or not you can not take an instuctor in the plane until the plane has 40 hours on it. Sorry if I have screwed up what you had intended to say.

What I meant was and I think I said it, was that I would get my private BEFORE I finish my plane, and train in my plane, as a p.p. I'm sure I will get some time in a Hi preformance plane. Like I said, I've never been worried about my piloting skills. My instructor, very rarely ever took the controls, and when they did it was to show me something. I landed the plane every time myself and never had a real bad one, or even bounced, in as many landings I did in 25 hours. One time I did screw up and completly forgot to put in the flaps at all. Landed a little fast but, that was just a simulation of a flap failure. :) --------------------------------- Yahoo! Shopping Find Great Deals on Holiday Gifts at Yahoo!
