I keep telling the wife I'm retiring in 4 years which would put me at 40. She's not buying it.

I miss flying Learjets. Especially the 24. Not enough to go back and fly them though.

We operate Gulfstream 450 and 650, and a Global. I fix (Director of Maintenance), don't fly (well.. private pilot only, since 1974/75 and no medical due to heartbattack in 2012). At times, ride jumpseat when needed.

If I could get my company to pay me more I'd fly these for life. We grin like idiots most days and can't believe we do the things we do.

Big D for me, seems I catch an 88 everywhere.

I may be the only one who likes those planes.

Love to fly, making a living at it never took off......

Yeah, the B model, C model and AT6 all have upgraded avionics from the A model to include HUD, HOTAS, etc. A lot of times when it's instructor/instructor flying we'll turn on the sim A/A or A/G targets and mess around.

I'm a dumb Army pilot so it takes all my brain power to stay current in two military helicopters, a single pilot military plane, and a uav.

The uav carries ordnance so it's only 1/2 the suck of most uav. The plane is fun because I'm alone mostly, nobody in the back seat to get sick. And helicopters are always fun.

Anybody on here fly blimps? That would be cool.
