I have close to 30 hrs of flying under my belt but lessons are expensive and I was doing sports etc in HS and just didn't have time or money with working in the summer, and I haven't done it again ever since. It's a lot of fun though....wish I kept with it. Maybe someday I'll continue to try and get my privates license.

I got my license on HS and seriously considered doing it as a career, with an inclination towards joining the military. When I heard how hard it is to get pilot positions in the services I backed off of it. I would love to take it up again just as a hobby but its too expensive to do regularly, especially post 9/11 and with such high fuel costs.

Oh, if anyone is looking at going career, just know that the pay and hours suck until you are flying a big airliner, and even then it's not anything to go crazy over.

Also, why fly when you can teleport?
