Can anyone beat this?
Started flying in 1987 and gained my PPL in 1988. Since then I have logged, and paid for, 5,980 hours of purely for fun flying.
Since 1989 I have had my own single, fixed wing, and added PPL(H) in 1996.
Currently I have a Piper Saratoga 2TC in which I flew to Sydney and back in 2001.
I've been a lucky chap!
