Question, how many here are involved with real airplanes?

[Romanator21]

1, and sort of 4 (I've not curated any exhibits, if that's what you mean.)

I have a PPL, have flown mostly 172s but also 152s, Archer, DA-20 Katana, and a Schweizer 300.

And I like air museums - I've been to an Air&Space in Seattle and LA. I've been to Chino a couple of times (and I'm going to see their Zero fly on Dec.4th Yay!! ) and Edwards AFB, and finally, one of my all time favorites, the Zhuliany air museum in Kiev, Ukraine. I don't know if it counts, but I've also had the pleasure of riding in a B-17, EAA's "Aluminum Overcast".

Excuse me while I spam you all...









Hello, Halo (largest Heli in the world still flying )


Not in Zhuliany, but they actually let me and my sister sit in a real Voskhod capsule (Either that, or they replicated the burnt ceramic exterior really well.)
