So how old are we all?

[distaff_beancounter]

I will give you a clue lads ............

The Olympic Games are held every four years to celebrate the fact that it is a Leap Year

Well, that's my theory!

[BRL]

Well I have met the good lady in question here (DB) and have even been in her car so I can safely assure you guys she doesn't look a day over 21......

[TheBeeKeeper]

DubTrub and Mike Cross..... my aeroplane was 60 this year, more than twice my age! Does that mean I am getting old before my time?

Hi there BRL

What I kind gentleman

Next time we meet I will buy you that pint or ten that I promised you for coming out with that load of old

[maggioneato]

According to the CAA records, there are only 6 female PPL's of my age, so that tells you very little.

Oh yes it does!

You must be very bright to be one of 6 only females to hold a PPL at age seventeen

19yrs old, PPL student at 37hrs, next is my solo QXC, then mock flight test!

[oscarmike]

Suddenly I feel horribly ancient............

Sorry to disappoint you folks, but you are working the wrong end of the scale.

[LowNSlow]

I'm 11 years younger than my Auster which was built post war. That's WW2 by the way not WW1

Memories

Old enough to remember what it was like to fly when a twin hired out at $25/hr, fuel was very cheap, HF Comms were DSB, VARs were just starting to become popular, most aircraft didn't have ADFs, VA/ORs, DMEs or GPS and you were number 12 waiting in line to take off on Saturday morning at most of Australia's secondary airports.
