How many of you have flown real aricraft?

I'm spending something along the lines of 75% of my salary on my airborne pursuits at the moment (addicted to it), instructor says I'm a natural and will probably end up going commercial, buts it's slow going at the moment. I live in the northwest of Ireland too so there's lots of uncontrolled airspace to jaunt around in so it's pretty easygoing too.

Would definately recommend it

I work for a mayor German airline as a first officer. Over the years some flight time adds up.

180h PA-28,350h F-33, 120h PA-42,2600h A319,320,321, 1800h A333-A346 and counting...

Now with the recession going on it might take some time with the CPT´s upgrade, but me is confident we might see better times ahead. It is not a too bad fate being a FO.

I don´t have that much time flying privately, so from time to time BoP or 1946 does it too. Also there are other hobbies to take care of.

Jet noise....the sound of freedom !

Cheers

I am going (want) to get my licence of ultra light aviation (paramotor or powered paragliding) next summer.

Ok that's not a real real plane but it is still flying And really more affordable for private fly

So I will be able to flight aproximately whereever I want and discover the beauty of Belgium landscape where I live currently....

Good to see a fellow Irishman here, although I live in Australia now Ireland's still home!
