Are you still keen on this kind of flying?

After getting away from flying the heavy twins and the Boeing four holer, I flew solo in a Cessna some months ago. Attemped to do some spins which weren't very tidy. Came away ashen faced, ego very deflated. Then I had to see this yesterday :

World Videos Yahoo! New Zealand News

Ain't too brave to get back on the Cessna anymore. Maybe I will stick to AP on at 200' AGL after takeoff and click it off at 500' AGL on a cool ILS approach. After touchdown bark at my F/O, " after thumping checks mate! "
