Depends on what tickles yer fancy. Some like

- going topless (oo-er) with the wind a-whistling about their bits and in the wires
- others think putting down on itsy-bitsy farmstrips is the dogs when all the world has to make to with 1000m of tarmac and massive landing fees
- there are those (usually of a notable age) who think nothing of spending £100+/hr going off to some European country in a PA28 at 100 knots away from the hub-bub of British airspace and toward the better sun/food
- a few wouldn't be seen dead in anything remotely spammy or indeed flying straight and level for more than 5 seconds. They are the loons, they most grunt whilst flying, hardly a smile indicating fun and their jaws are sometimes square. We shall simply call them "aerobatic pilots" (it's also jealousy on my part really!)

Many do their PPL and then decide they cannot or do not want to use it. Very rational of you to wonder at this stage.

What is a MTB? Motor-torpedo boat? Do you love Motor-torpedo boating?
