Just wondering..

Started my ground school today for my PPL.

Course of action for me,

PPL
IFR
Commercial
CFI
Multi Engine
ATP

And something new, a job perhaps

I make more then any airline pilot, but its been a lifelong
dream. It will take me 2 years atleast to reach the ATP.

I would like to be a pilot.

I am torn between net investments or pilot.

Or 70% pilot 30% net investments

becoming a pilot will change your life in ways that you can't imagine.

don't do it just for the "job."

do it because you love beauty.

Dated a guy going to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to be a pilot, does that count? ohhhh, good times! He looked like he walked off the set of top gun. It's hell to get old!!! LOL

Good Luck....For some it just in their blood to fly! Let us all know when you do your first solo!

I'm an astronaut...

I always wanted to be a pilot but then ended up doing engineering. One day I will get my licence and maybe even buy a plane. Flying is awesome fun, I have heard people say it gets boring but I think it would take awhile to get there.

... been flying a chopper for almost 3 years now.

That is one thing I want to learn before I die

Do flight simulators count?

Has always been a dream. Good luck!

Shok · 03-04-2004, 05:22 AM

I used to always want to be a pilot, but got sidetracked in life.

Now and for the last 10 years I do the next best thing...R/C jets

LOL, been too busy lately, but I used to be totally addicted to MS Flight Simulator. When I was still teaching, I'd take off from JFK and set the autopilot before going to bed, then land at Oakland before going to school in the mornings. Nowadays I just start up Combat Flight Simulator 1 every once in a while....when I'm feeling stressed I need to blow some Germans outta the sky
