Hi all, I am new to this site I'm pretty new to forums in general I normally don't use them because I can gain information I seek elsewhere friends, family, etc...so please excuse me if I posted this in the wrong spot. The reason I come here is because it is a childhood dream of mine to become a pilot that has never seemed to fade I ended up being a cnc machinist I work at Joe Gibbs racing in Huntersville NC, the time I was finishing high school was around the time of 9-11 and at that time being a pilot full time wasn't something I really cared to shoot for, I'm nearing a point in my life where the itch to be in the air is becoming unbearable, I have looked at pictures and watched videos for years now of vans rv7s and rv6s and have my heart set on one. Everything I do in the future is going to be based around owning one, what I really need is a direction to start down, and I have nobody that can get me pointed even close when it comes to aviation, so any help will be greatly appreciated! I'm sure many of u know the shoes I currently stand in wanting to fly so bad but being the only one out of anybody u have ever known to have this desire.
