One thing, Tim mentions a friend with a Cherokee 140. Nice plain airplane that you can fly for years while learning to fly but what concerns me is that 140 hp engine is not the strongest in the world.
Pls give one a try before buying. Would love to see a 160 or even a 180 but then the price is going to be higher.
Also Jeff mentioned several flying books. Try looking on Amazon and finding a used copy of the book. The new version of the Private Pilot Manual was $55 while there were 61 copies of the same book but used selling for $8 up. About the same situation with the Gleim.
