i am planning to join flying school and wanted some pointers as to from where to start and how to start? My goal is to get a recreational pilot license and had following questions.
1) I want to learn to fly only for recreation and not as a career.
2) Can we fly cross country with recreational pilot certificate/license or we need a private pilot license ?
3) I am located in Seattle, WA state, can anybody point out some good flying schools around here ?
Thanks in advance .
