50 something, United Airlines pilot, most Cessnas, Pipers, a few Beeches, a handful of other GA planes. Boeing Airbus Jetstream Twin Otter. 24,000+ hours although there are some that would say a good chunk of those should not be counted.

I want to do the Glider thing this summer.

I play guitar also, but mainly for my own amusement.
 
This reminds me of the A/S/L thing we used to do on chat.

Occupation: First officer, part 135 charter with a BS from Oklahoma State

Hours: 2800ish, Mainly Cessnas, King Airs and the Mustang (yea I know it's a cessna), bits in others such as Cherokees and I love to hang glide but it's a bit hard to do in the flat lands.

Can play Marry had a little lamb on a recorder and piano.

Age? 39

Occupation/Education? Distribution/Representation. College Dropout

How Many Hours You Have/Types of Airplanes You've Flown? 900-1000. 152, 172, 177, 182 PA8-140/150, 161, 180, PA23, PA24, PA12, PA34, AA5, M20J/201, BE24, probably forgetting some.

Future Plans: Pay taxes and die.

Miscellaneous: Nothing anyone would be interested in knowing.
 
Age: 41

Occupation: Internet Janitor (Senior Linux Systems Engineer)

Formal education: Another college dropout, professional aviation and one semester of being a Music major.

Hours of bliss: 506.3

Types: Mostly Cessnas, 184.5 in Cessna 182 or 182RG. 150, 152, 172, 172RG, and 210 in logbook. Schweitzer 2-33A, Aviat Husky A-1A, Mooney M20C. Not logged: ATR-42 non-sim, B-757/767 sim, B-747-400 sim.

Aviation Goals: Trying to decide if I want more ratings. Considering going all the way to CFI simply for teaching enjoyment and the pucker factor of allowing strangers to attempt to kill me on a regular basis. :) Would enjoy CFII more than teaching primary students.

Always have wanted to tow gliders, I have no idea why. Just sticks in my head as cool. Really feel it important to at least have the glider add-on for Private done, if doing that. Seen many people disappear into gliders never to return to powered. Ha. Kinda a lifestyle change. ;-) Also of course need to complete a tailwheel endorsement and get good at it, for most tow planes.

Want a multi rating, but I'd never be able to stay current, and I think not being current in a multi is a prescription for disaster. Kinda useless for me other than fun and challenge.

Think I'm going to start small this year and get an IPC done, then get a good WAAS GPS installed in the Skylane and get that all figured out. Or vice-versa. :)

Other fun: Ham Radio, Guitar (not that good and have no time for it -- always acoustic, current axe is a real Japanese Yamaha that sounds great), Music of any sort -- mostly listening these days but various types of vocal stuff in the past including jazz and choral and barbershop, as well as low brass/baritone horn), shooting (Karen and I took the nephew tonight.), reading, making fun of politics and politicians in the SZ here, and various volunteer organizations.

Also planning some travel this year, both by private airplane and by 5th wheel travel trailer, oh... and one cruise ship. ;) Don't have the vacation time, but do have the cash, so that could turn out "interesting" at work. Could turn into a "take this job and shove it" moment, if things keep going the way they are. Almost 20 years into this career and still piddly amounts of vacation time. Huge list of places I want to go to and things to see.

Agreed on tomatoes. Awful fruit that's so bad people think it's a vegetable. ;)

Definitely haven't figured out what I want to do when I grow up yet, but I know it's not another 20 years of on-call, nights and weekends, to make other people millions. :) Done enough of that. It's definitely become a hard habit to break though. Can't decide if it's worth it. Haven't had an uninterrupted normal night's sleep for a full month at a time in years. Certainly not a week without some sort of after hours maintenance or fixing things since about 1997 or so.

Does kinda fit my night-owlishness though. First overnight job was in 1993 or 1994? Done a lot of those of one sort or another.

Hate golf. Think it's the most boring thing in the world. Just don't get it.

Like driving. Not racing or esoteric stuff although those are fun. But just driving places. Doesn't bother me at all. Towing trailers for example, just makes a drive more interesting to me.

Love dogs. Need to finish getting a field fence and taller inner fence installed this Spring and get another one. Our current pup is an 81 lb German Shorthaired Pointer/Great Dane mix, Dino. He's awesome.
 
Age? 29

Occupation? Accountant; Working toward my CPA

How Many Hours You Have/Types of Airplanes You've Flown? 80 Total hours so far, just got my certificate in August 2013. Cessna 172/152/150. Piper Cherokee 180. Hopefully someday I will move up to something faster, possibly build an RV or something.

Future Plans (Doesn't have to be aviation related). Currently my goal is to just fly as a hobby, while working on higher ratings and someday a commercial certificate. I will have to see where that leads because accounting is treating me pretty good right now. As far as future plans, I am hoping that in the future I am able to fly more and eventually own a few airplanes.

Miscellaneous: Besides being fascinated with anything that involves aviation, I like being outdoors. Hunting, fishing, hiking and road trips around the country finding things off the beaten path. My wife and I don't have any kids, so we are really trying to do as much travel as we can manage.
 
Age: 40

Occupation: I make the internet go. FAST. "amateur" investor. BBA, Summa Cum Laude, Beta Gamma Sigma. (gotta throw those bragging rights around somewhere, they're of nearly 0 value at my day job)

Hrs/types: 70TT Just got my ticket in November after a 20 year student pilot career. (with a couple long breaks for good measure) mostly 150/152/172 and 1hr of AA5A time. Also took a 10-15min turn at the controls of a Beech Sport (not logged)

Future plans: Raise kids, fly some, work my way to C-ASEL, then add classes (SES, especially) want to do charity flying (PnP, Angel Flight, etc) mostly.

Miscellaneous: Plane geek, gun geek, computer geek, car geek, motorcycle geek...you get the idea. If it involves an interesting amount of engineering, I'm geeky all over it. I fly for fun, but if I could afford to do it professionally, I would (but not for an airline, that would ruin it).
 
Age: 46

Occupation: Deputy Sheriff. Assignment: Patrol, with collateral duty as air support pilot, firearms instructor and armorer. Previously was a field training officer (six years), bailiff, short time as a detective, and peer counselor.

Hours: 615. Commercial ASEL, imstrument rating.

Types flown: Cessna singles, Piper PA-28s, Mooney M20J, 12 minutes in a Citation Bravo.

Future plans: CFI, multi, tailwheels. Go to Idaho for back country flying. Retire from the Sheriff's Office in three or four years, move out of California, work part-time flight instructing, or maybe corporate or 135. I might look into working at a police academy teaching firearms. At some point - probably after retirement - I want to move from the 172 (10-way partnership, but only about four of us actually fly) to an RV-8 with no partners. If I could find some way to make it happen, I'd fly helicopters.

Miscellaneous: I ride my Gold Wing 300+ days a year. Been working out with weights for 33 years. Competed in powerlifting for nine or 10 years, got too beat up and tired of it, and focus on fitness now. Guitar player. Former lousy golfer - quit. I couldn't afford golf and flying, and I never had a shot at being a good golfer.

Future Plans (Doesn't have to be aviation related). I have no plans for further ratings but hope to stay instrument current and proficient. Other than that, hope to keep my job until I drop dead, since retirement isn't an option.

Miscellaneous: I lead a women's hiking group that meets every two weekends. I love cycling AND flying, and combine the two activities as often as I can. It's nice to be able to stuff a full-sized bicycle into an airplane. :)

Why? Just kidding. It's a tough profession with long hours but can be fun. My undergrad was in Economics as well. Don't know what it's like in CA, but in IL you need 150 hours to take the CPA exam which means most likely for younger college students a Masters degree. Good luck in the future.
 
Age: yes

Occupation: temporary - I work in the oilpatch so every meal is a banquet and every payday is a fortune...and all jobs are temporary

Types-n-time: about 500 hrs in the Frankenkota now - The 'kota started life as a PA-28-201T in 1979 but it didn't know what was going to happen to it when I got it in 2008. The A&P named the 'kota "Franken" after the third or fourth STC'd modification. Starting to build up a bit of mountain time now - there's a reason that folks write books about flying in the mountains.

Plans: maintain my temporary employment to pay for my addictions while avoiding incarceration.

Misc: I have three degrees in Petroleum Engineering and have taught at the university level. Also spent five years digging ditches before getting my first degree. Sort of a unique background to say the least. Other than that I'm a wall flower...and a pot stirrer and general irritant to pompous fools.
 
Age: old, well not that old at 57

Occupation: Manager of the engineering Dept for a Heating and Air contractor

Have flown mostly PA28 type aircraft with just over 500 hrs. Currently own a PA28R-201, just over two years now

Plans: hoping to work on a Commercial Ticket this year, either upgrade the avionics in the Arrow or get something else with upgraded avionics.

Misc: I look for the humor in all of life and I am not afraid to make fun of myself, I usually beat most people to the punch, but not all. (Ed) (Tim) good friends I like to spar with on occasion.
 
Age: 27

Occupation: Cellar Master. I do most of the physical day to day wine making operations for a small winery (pumping, filtration, barrel work, bottling etc.), but also do a fair amount of laboratory analysis and around this time of year, a whole lot of tasting (in the professional type setting).

Hours/type: NOT ENOUGH! About 60 hrs in my fam's Cessna 150, looking forward to getting some time in our new Cherokee 140 as well.

Plans: Climb up to Assistant Winemaker, then Head Winemaker, buy a house in Northern Ca, maybe start my own label.

Misc: Spend lots of time playing music (bassist) with a local group, heading into the recording studio this weekend. Would love to get an old (late 60's) Dodge or Merc and spend Sundays wrenching on it (My grandfather has had his '32 Ford Coupe since he was 16, I'd love to follow suit).

Why not?

Age: 70

Hours: 5000± Started in a Piper Colt (1962) switched to a C-150 to finish private, bought C-120 flew it San Diego to Boston, sold, bought C-170 to finish commercial/instrument (plus half a dozen trips to OSH), sold, bought 172, nearly 30 trips to OSH plus got CFI-airplane, engine failure and hit a bridge on final to the freeway, insurance money bought a basket case 182, completely rebuilt, a dozen trips to OSH (see avatar). Along the way picked up an A&P for work I had done putting myself through college (BS Physics, Math, Aerospace Technology, San Diego State, 1967) wrenching on L-188, B-727, B737 for PSA airline. Picked up a commercial/CFI glider in a Schweitzer 2-33. Done CFI in Cherokees, Mooneys, and Beech Staggerwing. A&P-IA on more types than I care to count (annuals and condition inspections only).

Profession: Currently professor of Mechatronics (a combination of mechanical and electronic technology) at Sierra Community College, state treasurer of the California Community Colleges, owner and founder of RST Engineering ("Kit Avionics"), and currently guest avionics editor (monthly column) for Kitplanes Magazine. Prior mayor of small Southern California town and county supervisor (you probably call them "commissioner") of Nevada County CA.

Miscellaneous: Met Burt Rutan at OSH '78 and started a long-term relationship with antennas in the winglets of the Vari-Ez and progressed up to and including antennas, engine instrumentation, and fuel tank timers for Voyager (ask me about VIOLET TITTIES sometime). First job out of college ('67) was in the microwave lab at Teledyne Ryan where we were doing the landing radar for Apollo.

In February 2012 a mutual friend sent me the email address of a lady in Kansas City that I steady-dated for four years of high school/college in San Diego (1958-62). In February 2013 I married that lady and brought her back to California, where we live with her three cats, my two cats, and a dog. Trying to get her interested in amateur radio without much success, but she just got the job of music director at our local parish church.

Future Plans: Hell, I don't know. I'm getting the urge to write books of all sorts, especially since there aren't any decent Mechatronics textbooks. I've had two cookbooks in various stages of completion for twenty years ("Kitchen Survival For The Suddenly Single" and "Boy Cooking" ... the latter of how to use dirty pans, sloppy measurements and come up with really tasty meat'n'taters sort of meals.) Gonna keep playing softball until I start hobbling between the bases.
