Hi Flyboy,
Im 16 and 1 month old. I bought the Gleim's book to the PPL Written test ( the big red one). I find that the best way to study for the exam. I started taking flying lessons when I was 15 and about 6 months. However I have had much prior experience flying with my father. I suggest you do start taking lessons. I soloed on my 16th birthday, and it really is something special. I don't mind waiting out the summer, it is a time for me to rack up hours and experience. Meanwhile I still fly with my father in our Cessna 340 (very beautiful airplane, go see one or find some pictures). Im hoping to take my checkride as close to my 17th birthday as possible, and then that summer take a crash course (excuse the pun) to get my multi and my instrument.
Anyway, what it all boils down to, is fly as much as possible with your EAA chapter. By your first lesson, you will be way ahead of the game.
