What type are you currently flying? (Serious answers)

[I.R.PIRATE]

I was wondering......what aircraft are you guys currently flying??

[Exhaust Manifold]

I'll give the first serious answer although the one above wasn't bad ;)

I'm driving a C208 :ok:

[sky waiter]

Right, serious answers no one wants to give it seems, although nothing exciting at the moment PA38-112/PA28 and soon hopefully C152/C206/BE76 and maybe a fun flip in a CITABRIA we'll have to see what the budget can do! :}

[exjet]

For the serious - a GLEX based in Stansted. About to check out of the hotel in Bangalore - off to Mumbai. Had some great curry!

Had my SA rugby 7's shirt on yesterday and of cause bumped into a whole crowd of saffers!

Up all the C208 drivers! That's my favorite little beast. Also the PC12, nice aircraft if you don't mind her handling, and then some King Air. Playing with Cherokees and little cessna's too, whenever I get a chance. Did some Jabiru's too, but almost got scared of heights then...:ok:

[Phenomenon]

In the past C208's... Absolute dream of a plane!!!

More recently 200's and 1900's.

[south coast]

seems like the vast majority of responces are from those who are contract pilots, judging by the types mentioned...probably bored out of their minds sat is some sh*te hole...i know, been ther myself.

[Mungalui]

Driving C208B.
Can like to like it a lot.:ok:
Beautiful machine. Guys knew what they did when they designed that flying marvel.
Cheers to the CARAVAN. :} :}

[catchup]

Why do you want to know?

[Mungalui]

On my first contract guys and girls.Thought it was going to be very hard.
Must be beginners luck or something but I find it to be just ok.I know there are some bad contracts out there and Im not saying everything is always fine and dandy but it was nice to be treated like a pilot and not some piece of sh$$**$te. :E
Best regards to all in West Africa.:cool:

[4HolerPoler]

Aaahh, one well remembers the palm fringed shores, gentle breezes and gorgeous women thronging around at that exotic holiday locale, Lake Lokichokio.:} One particularly misses the champagne breakfasts, five star cuisine and air conditioned luxury of one's suite in the Hilton at the ICRC camp. The romantic aromal of camel **** brings back such memories as one desperatley brushes the flies off one's lobster at the Hilton bar.

[Atlanta-Driver]

Flying B747 "Classic" at the mom
