Does anyone here fly?
Thursday I take my first hour to get my private pilots license. Just curious if anyone here has theirs and/or flies to try and see if anyone I meet there, might be someone on here.

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.

I'm a pretty good motorcycle rider (first time I ever rode one was the one I bought brand new) and hell, I've even spent summers on Kobotas and John Deeres.

Some people just have a natural inclination towards operating vehicles and I felt that was why I took to most piloting stuff pretty easily (my instructor was comfortable enough to have me take-off and do the basic maneuvers on my 2nd time in the plane and first time in the front seat).

So where I ended with was "if you can ride a motorcycle, you can fly a plane".

You buy it? Do you think there's a set of universal skills as an vehicle operator that makes one a decent pilot? Or do you think someone can be a poor driver but a good pilot?
Raw skills is all hand-eye coordination. Almost all of my teenage to 25 year old students could land the plane on their own in 1 or 2 lessons.

Teaching old people how to land was truly a test of my patience.

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.

Sorry.

All of my instructor buddies have moved on to bigger and better things. Most of them were in Tulsa at Spartan.

Also, why fly when you can teleport?
