Why dirtbag pilot?


Flying a small plane is fun. Modern flight schools are determined to strip every bit of enjoyment out of flight training to maximize profits to the point of making it a brutal grind for the students and then an even more brutal grind once those students become instructors themselves.

Dirtbagpilot takes a plane of the same variety you’d see at a flight school and uses it to an incredibly good time.
