There also is a photo of me at 6 or 8 (can't remember which) flying a helicopter virtually with my sidewinder joystick in my lap. Ah those were the days.

I am right now 16, I love to continually do flight sims and it actually helped me decide what I want to go to college for, aerospace engineering. I also am right now trying to get a part time job to pay for pilot's lessons since I got my first one for Christmas. Right now have clocked .5 hours of flying time in a logbook for real life and probably several thousand virtual hours.
Same age here mate , nice to see we are not alone, and the community if Fly simmers will long!, Congrats on that boy! will be a Hurricane ace! Skoshi Tiger
