Thanks everyone.
This was a gift as well ... my wife knows that I want to take this up, and get my own plane eventually. So she sprung this on my for my birthday. It has been months until I finally had a free morning to take them up on it.
My understanding is that once I come onboard fully with the flight school, lessons will indeed be in a 172, so a little more shoulder room there!
So, I need to do the medical, then lodge the ASIC and AVIC paperwork to CASA, then onward from there.
I think the ideal for me, is to get my PPL, then source a 172 or 182, and some property away from the light, people, civilisation in general ...
I don't want to take it further than a private thing. I'll leave the ferrying to real pro's, like Allan. I just want to be able to get up, go, land and start scoping in a quiet, cold, dark location (cold not necessary, though).
