That sounds great Mark, most of my family is involved in airplanes in one way or another. My father worked for USAirways for 13 years as a mechanic on the "Big Birds" and is now on volentary Farlow. My grandfather (moms side) worked at boeing making parts for planes. My uncles (both on dads side) are currently mechanics for continental airlines. And hopefully I can keep airplanes in the family for a couple more generations. Preferably being a pilot, but if i absolutly have to i can definitly settle for a mechanic. I plan on going to college for a few years and get the degree I need to be a pilot in the airforce, after that go to an airline piloting passenger planes! While at the sametime keeping this awesome hobby in my life. How long does it take to get a regular pilots licsense?

Thanks for your time,

Adam Ranck
