Status: offline 		Guess I should chime in on this one. Started flying when I was 18 in KC-135's as a boom then decided that the back seat sucked so got my edumacation and got picked up for UPT on a ROTC scholarship... Flew T-34's then T-38's and now am flying the mighty BONE (B1-B) at Dyess. Here are some pics from our "deployed location"

Status: offline 		Hey, I'll post a couple pics.
Here's me at Oshawa with a 152 and then me in a few years time...
I've got PPL and glider. Got both with the Royal Canadian Air Cadets.
I plan to become a test pilot, hopefully on exchange to the USAF TPS.

Are there any test pilot's on here?

Status: offline 		Got my private last August in a Piper Warrior. Been renting 152's and 172's since then and trying to get up at least weekly. Weather doesn't always cooperate up here in the NW, so I really want to get my instrument rating. Hopefully in the next year or two.

My two year old boy really digs it too.

Status: offline 		I started lessons in November '04. I always wanted to since I was a kid, but thought it was too expensive. Turns out it's not! Should have started this years ago... So far I fly Cessna 150, 172, Piper Warrior, Aronca Champ, and a Grumman Traveler. Won't be much longer before I have my private. I plan on continuing acquiring various ratings as well. Here is a shot of me taken the first time I ever put my hands on the controls. For about 10 minutes I had a death grip on the yoke! After 20 minutes, I knew I was going to be a pilot!

Status: offline 		I trained and got my private in 150s, then took lots of training on the G.I. Bill. I got my Instrument, commercial, multi-engine and instructor ratings. Flew Cherokees (140, 180, Arrow, 6),Citabria, Mooney Executive, and Twin Comanche. Taught some friends and then we partnered on a used 1968 C172I N46130, (first year they used the 4-cylinder Lycoming.) I was in that partnership for about 18 years. Retired and sold my share and bought a motor home. Now an active RC Modeler, see 1/3 scale Balsa USA Ercoupe thread.

Status: offline 		Don't think I've replied to this thread before. I should be getting my private soon and then will start working on my instrument. Here in NJ it seems like 1/3- 1/2 of scheduled flights are cancelled due to weather. I've flown a C172, C152, Piper Warrior, and Piper Cherokee 140. The Cherokee is my favorite.

Status: offline 		Great Idea!!! I have been flying models for more than 30 yrs. I also have been flying as a Pvt Pilot for 21 yrs. I couldn't leave well enough alone.. so I had to build a "real" airplane to fly. I wasn't smart enough to stop there and have just finished my 3rd full scale plane. It was so easy to fly. I let the club VP taxi it around. (thats him in the pic)..Sorry Joe.
