My whole life has been spent in airplanes, my dad flew for a living and taught me how to fly in high school. I felt that I could never stop flying, I loved every minute of it. Then get married, kids, moving off, building a carreer, building my own bussiness, dad's airplanes and credit card gone, and all of the other reasons.
26 years later I buy a couple airplanes and get current again. The only thing that doesn't come back is that love of flying. I would rather just bring in a pilot and sit in the back and go for the ride now. The mechanics use my 172 more than I do. My wife knows how I drive and prefers the Malibu with a professional pilot.
So I lurk around several web sights in search of what I'm missing. Everybody seems excited. What keeps you going? I'm sure that someone has gone through this before. I've been thinking getting another rating might help but I really can't devote the time to that kind of project.
Any thoughts?
