Flying lessons?

Question

What are flying lessons like and what are the health standards to do so?

I'll finding out soon.

They told me corrected 20/20 vision will work.

It has nothing to deal with medication.

I have poor eye sight when uncorrected.

Again, they said, if I wear corrected lenses, I could take the class.

Answer 1

Reasonably average health is good enough. If you're not seeing a doctor for anything serious, it'll not be a problem. Even if you are on some meds, you might have to jump through a few more hoops, but the physical isn't like some NASA astronaut type of thing.

The flying gets easier once you settle down and get used to it. It's work, but a fun kind of work.

Answer 2

My first lesson was in a 40 year old Cessna 150, tail number N5400Q, a number I'll never forget. It is a two seat airplane. My instructor told me to relax and enjoy the scenery, next time we were flying I'd be too busy to do so. He made sure we had a smooth flight (no barrel rolls). Most people training today do so in slightly larger aircraft. Cirrus has overtaken Cessna as the largest producer of aircraft; all their plane are equipped with an airframe parachute, which can give you peace of mind on your first flight. As a pilot who has flown mostly Cessna and Piper aircraft, I find the controls slightly cumbersome; it is flown with one hand via a stick that comes out of the panel...it's hard to describe, check out the Cirrus website. Good luck, you're sure to enjoy this experience.

Answer 3

Take a joy flight lesson - gives you an intro at the lowest expense and you don't have to be healthy.
