Re: Foreflight vs wingx
when you zoom in or out with foreflight, it takes a second or two to redraw your map. With wingx it keeps your map up and loses nothing. Not a real big deal I guess but I like my screen to always be seen.

I don't know what speed you are climbing out at but should be about 60. As stated previously you may need to climb out a bit shallower but 60 should put you at the right climb for that bird. Also pay attention to sticking with the rudder, don;t get lazy. If you climb out at 60 and stick with the rud...

Do not be afraid of the taildragger. That is all they had years ago. A taildragger makes you a better pilot(in my oppinion). Once you get really proficient at a taildragger you won't want to fly a trycicle gear again. They can do a lot that a nose gear can't. I say go for it and you will be glad you...

It all depends on your ability and if your instructor feels your ready and SAFE. There is no time regulation for solo. It is not a good idea to rush it as you need to have hours with the instructor anyway, so you may as well make sure you are ready and confident. Most people solo around 10 or so, I ...
