I am a pilot also, commercial, multi-engine and flight instructor ratings. That is what I went to school to do originally. Took some other side turns and got out of it... with a little regret about that. But I hope to get current and fly again as a hobby at least, maybe teach again.
But ecurbh hadn't ever been in a little plane before!
Oh wow:) I;m impressed.
The last time I went up with Mack we were with another couple in one of those planes you can do stunts in???. Anyway they did something I think it was called a stall, negitive g's, the dirt flew up and we came out of the seats....the thing is they didn't warn us first that they were going to do it. Scared the crap out of me. Right before they did it some buzzer was going off, and I kept asking what is that buzzer, and Mack and the other guy never answer. We were all young and dumb then, I don't think he would do that sort of thing again, wonder we didn't ever kill ourselves:). Mack is not current either right now, but has been talking about doing it again. But that is a very expensive hobby, even more so then horses.
