I've got about 6 hours now and find it not the slightest bit
fun.

Can anyone remind me why I'm inflicting this on myself?
Because flying above the clouds, etc., is the second biggest thrill, after
sex.

Ouch .......

Oh I do, on a very regular basis.
But lets face it .... an hour at the yoke or a roll in the hay .......

Unless it is someone like Ms Jolie .... it's the yoke 75% of the time I
reckon :-)

Don't worry it gets worse!

Nothing worth having like this comes without some sweat equity, but it
is worth having and you will make use of it.

hang in there.

That's for sure. I think my low point came at around 20 hours. Seemed
like things would just never come together at the same place and time.

Absolutely, assuming the right motivation to begin with.

Refer to "WHy get an IR" two posts below in rec.aviation.student

I don't think anyone will be able to answer that. At the end of the day
it depends on why you're pursuing the rating in the first place. If
it's something you're doing because you're planning a career or because
everyone keeps telling you that you should, then that could be the
reason. Some pilots never pursue the IR because they either don't have
an interest, or it's not a good investment given that they may not use
it enough to remain current and proficient. If you're pursuing aviation
as a career then it's essentially a necessity, which could mean that
you're not really excited about it, but it's a required step. Maybe you
don't like the regimented nature of the rating or hate not being all to
enjoy the view. Maybe it's your instructor. Did you start the IR
immediately after completing the PPL and before having an opportunity
to fly around as a VFR only pilot?

For me the IR was certainly a challenge, but one I wanted to accept
because I was ready for it. It was a great learning experience, but
like the private there were days that were frustrating and were not fun
at all. But overall I had a great time.

Fun is what you make of it. It's hard at the start. If it were easy,
everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it worthwhile.

Just quit. If you really have to ask, you probably wouldn't understand the
reply.
