I've flown an airplane before but it was already up (so no landing or taking off for me).... I don't have a license and I'm not able to get it (no money). As for how I was able to fly the plane - I look kind of young - and there was a "young pilots" thing going on (the organization that has Harrison Ford as their spokesman) and they were giving free rides. I didn't know that they were also letting you fly them.....sad, I know, but c'mon. Free airplane ride beats sitting home playing video games! I can pass for 12 when I feel like it, apparently....

I've never had the privilege of flying a plane, and I've been PaX only once. That was on a medevac after sustaining trauma. I am however a flight buff, and fly online in simulations of the CRJ/Embraer variety. That count? : P

As long as the sim is TC approved (in Canada).

I'm a Commercial Pilot with Float and Multi-Engine ratings. Currently flight instructing and doing charters around Ontario. It's a fun job.

First post by the way! Maybe I'll get some aerial shots of neat places soon.

I don't fly, but next year I'll be legal to fix them. Well, avionics at least.

Awesome! What school are you enrolled at? I'm thinking about doing a two year stint at a local JC, and then transferring to the local Embry-Riddle campus. Then again, I'm thinking about getting into air traffic management, but that all depends on how well the AP/M spectrum pans out.

I did ground school 2 years ago.

Due to the cost of flight training, I've had to postpone getting my PPL. I want to have enough set aside so I can do 2-a-week lessions until I can get my rating. Idealy, I'd love my IFR rating also, but one step at a time.

EDIT: I've strongly considered doing the ATP program (www.atp.com). It is quite expensive, but you get a ton of ratings really fast, and I could use my GI benefits to pay for most of it.

Been a pilot since before I could drive legally. Not to say that I wasn't driving before I was licensed but Started flying when I was 7 and solo'd when I was 14. Still a private have had some pretty good times above 5280. Started jumping out of planes when I was 18 and got almost 300 jumps under my belt including some HALO and night jumps. Just wanted to say to all the others in this forum.

Well I thought I'd go ahead and be the jerk to post in a year-old thread. Whaddyawantfromme. I'm a closet pilot, it's true; I got my private license two years ago, and occasionally go out, but in general I find people to be too annoying with dumb questions to flaunt the fact.

You're officially, like, my favorite user here. AV8Bs are the sexiest thing since wings.

Going today in fact to scout out another abandoned military base.
