I took some lessons when I was in my teens, I have like 20 hours or something. That's it though. Motion sickness and being a pilot do not mix AT ALL. Especially in a 152 where a fart will knock it around.

PPL but out of medical. Only claim to fame is 20 minutes of dual instruction in a Ford Tri-Motor.

I love full scale flying, but I had to give it up due to personal life conflict. I used to have 1/3 ownership of a Cessna 172. I was ready to solo when I quit. I Wish I could fly again. I'm much too old now. :):)

Don't tell that to Snoopy* at the Reno air races, last I heard he was 90+ on a slightly restricted medical for day VFR.

* don't know his actual name, everyone called him that at the airport, even the tower. Bob Hoover was old as dirt but could fly circles around anyone else including the thunderbird lead.

Who here is a pilot?
I am, or I was. I was a commercial pilot/CFI with all the fixins but had a medical incident that retired me. I am healthy and miss flying but don't can't afford to fly as I have other expensive things demanding my money.

I will be someday, but for now I'm building a Corben Junior Ace to get my taste of full-scale aviation.

PPL, night rating, had enough hours to write my commercial and was working on my instrument rating. Currently out of medical and probably couldn't regain my Class1 medical now even if I wanted to, unfortunately, thanks to a heart condition.
