Any pilots and if so what do you fly?

I fly for work... everything. Prefer fixed wing to rotary wing. Unfortunately we cant enforce the law or track people from anything that cant hover

 

Drill holes in the sky in a 172 for fun. Used to tow banners and fly float planes, never made any money doing either!

 

UAV's

 

i get to fly my dads cessna 210 every once in a while

 

No but when I was in Iraq (07--08) I worked a bunch of your accidents....

 

fly my fav chair.

 

brother inlaw is captain on an embraer190 for air canada,
i use to fly 172's and grumman A-5's

 

never flown.

 

Ever come out to the HAATS program?

 

Funny you should mention HAATS. I was preparing the Georgia/Alabama guard guys to go up to Montana and get HAATS trained up there. Their IP (0-3) had just finished training some Canadians. Absolutely fantastic facility but something fell thru the cracks. Not sure what but it was above my pay grade (CW5) so off I went to another unit to spool them up. I retire after 33 years on the last day of January.....

 

ahhh. i work out of the Eagle airport. couple of our pilots have sat through the ground school but i haven't been yet. i see them flying all the time

 

HAATS is excellent training as it keeps you out of the box of out of altitude, out of power and out of idea's.....Why don't you test out to see if you can get into the Army's high school to flight school program as a Warrant?

 

I FLY!!! Great thread. Mostly PA-28

Leading my flock home. Damn airport didn't have the geese audio deterrent thingy so they really were pretty close.

Hey Gadget are you prior AF or did you spend your money getting all those ratings....

 

The parents have a Cessna 414 and bought the kids a p210 to learn to fly in to bad me and my brothers and sister could have cared less about flying

 

Yeah, my dad has a couple of planes, always tried to get me and my brother's to fly, none of us took an interest until our later years when we don't have time. I was actually going through my old trunk last night and found my 3rd Class Flight Medical from 1996 when I began flying, of course gave it up probably by the end of that year. Now that I really want to fly again, I just don't have the time.

 

i'm too old, get paid more, have a better schedule and nobody shoots at me!

 

I have flow most of single engine planes out there, including the acrobatic citrabia. I have not flown in a few years now, but my go for 2011 is start flying again. I have around 500 hours of flight time. All fun, not commercial.
