Ah you don't need no freaking training, shove that throttle forward and pull back on the stick after you run for a couple of minutes. keep the nose pointing forward, don't turn with the stick, it ain't a car, use your feet...see those pedals down there....use them. once you get airborne call me for landing instructions.

Shut up Bears, this aint funny..

Yeah, I really do not understand all this FAA license stuff. Full throttle, pull back on the stick, what thing by the feet aviator? hangfire told me they were the brakes?
O.K.. Sat in a big chopper cockpit twice. A twin engine plane once in flight and landing.. Sat in a commercial pre 9/11, down time waiting to take off. Nice pilots they let me sit their for a few. Damn cool as hell.
Yeah aviator the damn landing.. Guess that is the hard part, no pun intended..
Going on 66 years young and I want to be a pilot.. What am I friggen nuts. My damn Harley I can't even get on.. Girlfriend went nuts when I mentioned buying an ultra-light..
Don't think she is worried about my dieing, it is her loss of income from Sugar Daddy, me, she is worried about..
Maybe I better go take some lessons, see how I do..
Hold my beer, watch this..

Hey I once met a doctor who was trying to learn how to fly on his 65th birthday, poor guy died of a heart attack before he got his wings. I flew with him on a cross-country flight....I'm glad I went along or he would have died before his time.

4th, please post the video

Of your flight training....

hangfire · 12-04-2013, 08:37 AM

Once aloft, if you push the stick forward the houses get bigger. Pull on the stick, and the houses get smaller. All you need to know.

O.K.. My Bro is putting electronics in private jets over at Deland airport.
How hard are they to fly? He told me to come over and check out the planes.. Damn some money over their. Lots of private jets..
Arm is healing. Hell yeah 44044, video for sure.. Might even parachute and do a video of that.. Screaming like a little girl all the way down..
aviator for real. That is why I like two pilots up front at the minimum.. Not kidding.
Flying in that twin on the way too the Keys, Key West, then back too Marathon for flats fishing with my Bro.. Damn that is a blast sitting in the cockpit, whole new world up their..
But I am thinking. What the frig if this pilot faints or something? What the frig do I do?
Now I was a devout fan of "Sky King" in the 1950s.. But not enough to take the controls.

Hell, he must have aimed at that particular tree.

Tim, maybe you just better stay

on the ground. You might crash

into someone and hurt them

Must be the same tree that always gets Charley Browns kite.

Wonder if he will aim for a power line next?
IF he ever gets another opportunity.

Vermont. Phantom pilot Fighter Jock from Nam retired and living in the State. An Attorney at that..
Nice guy. Guy is at a small golf course we hung at with a then new ultra light. 1970s or so..
Fighter Jock. 'Give me the stick, I will show yah how to fly that thing."
Damn he was good, loops up down all over the place, picked it up real fast.
Final approach too the golf fairway.. Oh my God, he does see those power lines.. Whoops, guess not..

About a 60 foot drop, busted ankle.. Walked to the club house bar.. Wrote the owner of the light a check on the spot and swore to never get near one again. True story..
