Learning To Fly with Rod Machado

Well, it’s graduation day. If you’ve completed all these tutorials you’ve impressed me in several ways.
First, you showed tremendous motivation, which I liken to Captain Ahab going after Moby Dick and
taking the tartar sauce along. Ahab was motivated, just like you. While many of your brother and
sister Flight Sim users were out buzzing bridges and skidding off aircraft carriers you were studying.
Additionally, you’ve delayed your gratification and have earned basic flight skills as a result. I’m
impressed.
Now you’re ready to take the online Instrument Lessons 3 and 4, in preparation for your Flight
Simulator Instrument Rating Checkride!
Remember, this is only the beginning. Consider taking a flight lesson in the actual airplane. Do it for
no other reason than to see how much you really learned. Who knows? In a few years, it may be you
taking me for a ride in your airliner.
Bon Voyage!
