Forum >> Flight TrainingShould I Go To Ground SchoolI am just starting working on my PPL (had 12 hours back in the 80s but decided to start over). Should I spend the time and money to go to ground school first, or should I jump in and just hit the skies for the flight time? Re: Should I Go To Ground SchoolI was wondering the same thing... I'm want to start soon.
Re: Should I Go To Ground SchoolI was in a similar situation, started flying in the early 80s and ran out of money after about 18 hours. When I decided to start again in 2007 I signed up for a part 135 ground school (jepp based program) finished and took the written, then stared over on the flying part of the program. With all the changes in airspace, comms, services, and navigation it was worth it when I started the flying portion. I also think I had a better relationship with my flying instructor because he knew I had already passed the written with a good score and we were able to concentrate on the hands-on procedural training as opposed to the whys behind doing it.
