ISO Private Pilot

[sraun]

I've got a co-worker who's thinking of dropping the ridiculous amount of money necessary to become a private pilot. He'd like to talk to someone who's already gone through the process first.

Anyone willing to do a phone conversation? Or maybe an e-mail exchange? Or have a friend you could put me in contact with who'd be willing?

My friend, Linda Dowdy, is a Certified Flight Instructor. She works out of Anoka Airport, IIRC. I could probably supply contact information.

My co-workers Chuck Caldarale, Jorn Loberg, and Gene Leclerc all have (or had) private pilot's licenses. I could also supply contact information for them, if so desired.

I'd talk to Linda, myself.

Have you talked to Mike Bakula? I don't know how far he got, tho.

He already volunteered in private e-mail. Thanks!

I have a coworker who got licensed a few years ago. Let me know privately if you want email contact info.

Will do if I need it - I've gotten eight names so far, so your coworker is pretty far down the list right now.
