Been flying for 30+ years. Don't bother logging any more.

Looking for an '06 or later CBR1000RR, preferably red/black.

Age: 57

Experience: Goodyear blimp crash. I deflated it on the side of the brooklynn bridge. 8 months as a 747 captain, then realized I didn't stay at a holiday inn express that night. 10 days as a flight attendant, but then of course, I'm not gay. 4.2 hours as a rampee; got fired for ramping the bosses car with a towbar through the windshield. 0.6 hours as a airplane mechanic; had to start somewhere right?

Future asperations: Lint brush.

Anybody else feel like this is a complete waste of time, and that the Ego flaunting dweeb who started this should be retrained on the finer points of nose picking?!

Do you mean this thread? Doesn't sound like an ego flaunting dweeb to me.

I'll edit this post if you edit yours to redeem yourself.

Soon to be 72 (Oct.)

Private pilot license.

Somewhere between 25,000 and 30,000 accident free hours.

I'm a bit vague on my total time because it really doesen't matter all that much anymore.

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no


After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.
