Wow…for not having career in aviation, that’s some wild stuff! I have conversations with colleagues all the time about the ups and downs (no pun intended) of this lifestyle. My first experience in a small plane was in a North American T6…I was hooked immediately! Just out of college and dove headfirst into full time training. Over the next 3 years got 2 rides in a P51 and 1 in a B25…I actually got to fly the B25 for about 5 minutes! The P51 was a tiny backseat no controls but amazing….36 years later and 23 years at the current company, no regrets just tired of the suitcase. Only 5 years left and making the most of it! Best part is oldest son got the itch but went in a different direction and is a soon to be Captain in the USMC flying the AH1 Viper (Cobra) couldn’t be more proud!
Sounds like your scratching the itch just fine! Gotta catch the hotel shuttle now!..long day Clt-Mco-Msy-Mco-Rdu 😵‍💫
Thanks for sharing
I think people like me who do basic jobs grunting around with our feet on the planet have respect for pilots in part because you have a much lower tolerance of error. If I make an error at work 75% of the time it’s easily remedied and I have a do over. Pilots, surgeons and many other fields don’t have that luxury. So respect.

Today my 68 transitional is on my wrist…
This morning, i was sure the dial is getting tropical. Reading my email on my computer, I saw the dial with a touch of brown/ red.
So I tried to make a picture of it… i’m just tired I guess

Desotos Heidelberg w/Val. 72. I'd call this a "poor man's Enicar Sherpa-Graph," but there's nothing poor about it, imho!
