Anno Domini

Dennis K will be rolling on to 75 next October.

I've held a class one since 1972 and a Royal Air Force medical for a few years before that. Every three years I'm off to LGW for my 'stress ECG' which they like to call 'an exercise ECG' these days. As I said to the lady last time. "I sweat more on a fast run down to my local pub!"

I'm an ex 4min 16 sec miler and anyone out there over 50 want to run alongside me over a mile tomorrow.

In 2002 I took part in the world freestyle championships and did so again in 2005. I'm legal to fly with an 'ab initio' student, but not legal to take punters to Silverstone. I plan to take part in the 2008 world champiohips and wouldn't it be great to be the oldest guy in the world to win a world championship event.

All this to really say. Hold a class one medical, (stress ecg et al) remain competent in the air and let me exercise the priviledges of my ATPL.

Dreaming.
