Have You Ever Flown an Airplane?

I took lessons in high school and went up with an instructor last year. It's an expensive hobby but I'd love to get my license. And a plane of course...

@SW-User I always wanted a flying dog! get him a little leather helmutt and some goggles!

Wait... lessons in high school and you finally got back into it?

I’m tempted to try it as an early retirement gift.

Post more about it as you go along.

@SW-User Not exactly getting back into it. Wife got me a gift cert for birthday last year. It's a big commitment and quite expensive. But it was fun to go back up and actually fly around for an hour! The plane had a stick and bubble canopy like a fighter. No machine guns though.. (sad face :-( ...)

No but I was allowed to briefly take the controls of an open topped glider

@Dlrannie I'm going to say that counts as flying an airplane! I did go up in a glider once also, interesting experience.

@GerOttman It was certainly very exciting🙂

Not one an engine, no. I flew hang gliders for about 8 yrs though.

@Wraithorn I'd like to give that a try sometime! Looks awesome.

@GerOttman It's mind blowing really.

Nope but it’s my dream lol

@SW-User most small airports have a reasonably priced intro package
