    First flight! Just sensory overload. You'll do fine.

    I'll try and look you up at skydive LI. I have relatives in centerreach and try to get up there a couple times a year.

    If you instructor does spins, do a few, even if they aren't required for private they are a confidence builder. IMHO as a CFII



    Hey centereach is the town right next to me!! DO you come up here to fly or jump?

    Stalls sound scary until you do them. Then it's like, "That's it??? That's what I was worried about??". Learning to fly is a wonderful experience. You are going to have a BLAST! :)One small hint: The instructor will occasionally try to catch you on this but, no matter what happens, always first fly the aircraft, then take care of navigating, engine out procedures, etc. I got caught breaking that rule once and got yelled at by my instructor at 3500 ft in a 152. I never did THAT again.



    My instructor is a mid 20's really cool kid...he would never yell haha

  5. Taking the course to get my private pilots license...man its scarier then skydiving when i first did it!!!

    I feel like im not in control at all..hardest part is turning while pitching up or down...and steering on the ground with the damn pedals!!!!

    :)

    Jerry stop bullshitting everyone...wtf is a brain fart...i looked it up

    Brain Fart - When someone sits on your ear while you are sleeping and farts. Usually done as sick pranks at late night parties.

    So someone sat on you ear while you were sleeping under canopy and farted....i dont see how this has anything to do with you eating shit on your 170 on your first off Dropzone landing....with 800 jumps...

    Like i always say gerry....its all out of live

    when i line up the angles on both cameras with the same lens....the EOS XT is much much wider with the 15mm lens on then my digital rebel xti...this is wierd....im not just seeing things...

    My gf even said holy shit its alot wider when she looked through it and i didnt even mention it to her



    The reason for that is that your EOS XT is one of those "high end full frame" cameras :P
    The EOS XT is a 35mm film camera right?
    Nope... at least my EOS Digital Rebel XT isn't a full frame camera.:P

    That is of course unless You ARE talking about a different camera that is a Film camera... of course I have a EOS Ti that is a film camera...


    YES the EOS XT is a 35mm Film Camera...the bite switch works with it so im oging to buy some film and take some pics with it this summer
