I work from home, but I'm still bored at work.. .. .Can't work it out exactly, but I started flying f/w in November 1997, and helicopters in September 1999. I now have a total of about 380 hours, just over 200 rotary and 180 f/w. Jeez...that's around 80 hours a year, no wonder I'm always broke. I have a PPL(A) and a CPL(H), but no-one's paying me to fly yet. I'm off to California next month, and will probably get another 40 or so rotary hours. And I might be going heli flying in Russia(!) in August. If the money lasts out, I'll do my heli instructor rating next year, and maybe finally get paid to fly little whirly things. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> And after that I might belatedly get my IMC, which I've talked about for 4 years. There's always more isn't there. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />
