Return to flight!

Post by Speed3Guy »

I got my BFR today! I'm legal to fly PIC for the first time in over 13 years! You can't imagine how good it feels to be a "real" pilot again!

Cheers,
Guy

Just shows that "you can take the Guy out of the sky - but not the sky out of the Guy" (Sorry, that was REALLY bad!!)

I know how you feel. I didn't fly for a number of years before getting re-current. I don't plan to ever do that again :mrgreen:

Congrats Guy. I also know what it feels like, I was grounded for 10 years before I went back to it, got my instrument rating, and now am spending everything on this rv thing.

I too am spending everything on this project. I stopped at the airport last Sunday. Rental rates for a beat up Warrior is $103 an hour!! My BFR slipped by last July, so to rent and fly 4-6 hrs a month will take 400-600 away from my RV a month. Sigh. I think I'll just suck it up and get this sucker built!
