Hey, my name is Knox, I learned about Steemit from the youtube channel Anarchast.
I made my account the other day, but I haven't been able to post any introduction because I've been busy working, I'm actually on break at work as I type this Lol.

I'm an aspiring pilot, but have many other interests.
I begin flight training in January 2017. It's neat stuff, I'm obsessed with it actually. If anybody here is involved or interested in aviation I'd love to chat, & follow you if you have good content (:
Here's my view from a DA40 the other day.

I'm still getting used to Steemit and have lots of questions. So I could use some friends who've been here a while. A Steemit guru Lol.
In short, I'm interested in all things science, technology, anarchy and capitalism, I'm ready to meet new people and from what I've seen I think I'm going to like it here.

Break's over, cya!

Welcome to Steemit Knox!

ok awesome, thanks man.

Hey and welcome! Nice view you got there!

I heard learning to fly isn't as complicated as people might think, is that true?

I'll throw you a follow to easier see your next posts you might share with us, ask away if there is anything on your mind about the platform or how stuff works around here. :)

Flying isn't extraordinarily difficult in and of itself, just as driving's not that difficult, left right stop go, just add a dimension Lol.
It's all of the knowledge, experience, and procedures that come with it. There's a lot of memorization, repetition to build good habits and muscle memory. Situational awareness and judgement are also big factors, knowing when or when not to fly, knowing where you are & who/what's around you.
But the bare bones stick and rudder stuff is pretty simple. If you've never flown in a small airplane I highly recommend searching for a local flight school and seeing if they do introductory flights, that's how I got into it.

I hear helicopters are ridiculously difficult to fly.

I have to admit my naivety here, I've never flown a helicopter. Single engine props are all I know as of yet.
