Thought I would post a picture of the last airplane I flew, the Boeing 757.



Here's the coolest airplane I've ever flown.



Good times!

I have been flying for 20 years and had my ticket for the last 12. Congrats on joining the club, we are a rare breed.

Here is a pic of my last flyable airplane which I sold 2 years ago after rebuilding it and owning it for 15 years. I still have 4 more projects if I can ever find time to build them.

Sweet looking planes!

The Cirrus is a real pleasure to fly and next to the new Corvalis, it's the fastest GA fixed wing aircraft around.
I signed up to use PIC for my IFR training, I called them 2 hours after getting my ticket.
The 10 day IFR course starts 8/5/09.

It is a 1941 Taylorcraft BC-12-65. Aeronca sedan is a little bigger and a 4 place.

Curtis,

I take it the 75 was with an airline. One of my favorite to work on, next to the B777.

I took lessons years ago and even solo'd in the pattern, although I never finished due to cost.

Yeah Matt the 757 was when I was at Primaris. Love that airplane...it was built for pilots. The triple 7 looks like it would be a kick. Love the NG technology! I used to fly the 737-800 and man that made the job easy!

All this airplane talk is giving me low altitude sickness.
