Obviously I am deeply frustrated but anyone asking these questions has not been around for long enough in flying.
There is always a bugger that has a bigger or more shiney one.
Or has done it more often.
Bear that in mind!
True, but....

IMHO threads like this are rather fun. They give everyone a chance to start counting, and/or see where everyone else has been. It doesn't have to be a game of airfield bagging oneupmanship; it can be: "Oooo so-and-so's been to Fair Isle; I must ask him about it, always wanted to go there", or whatever.
The Flyer List way back had a discussion about hours per airfield (you divide one by the other) and it ran and ran; I tried it on here and it fizzled out, which I always thought was a shame.

But then, I'm probably deeply frustrated too - been reading PPRuNe too long, and just back from a flying holiday and finding it hard to settle to non-flying work.
