You know you're a C152 pilot when you shoulder barge your car door to open it.

I've actually done this more than once and when the door didn't open I had a rather confused feeling for a few seconds.

When you consider that paying over £100 for a beefburger is a good deal.

When you drive on the motorway and pretend to be flying under all the bridges!

.... on a bright summers day when the air is full of haze and poor viz and people say "What a lovely day" and you say "No it isn't!"

...you're driving in your car, need to concentrate on a difficult traffic situation but can't find the "pilot isolation" button to mute out the chitchat of your passengers.

...you back up your TomTom with an actual road atlas.

Dulles Airport, Washington DC. Couple of hours to kill, ate a meal, then decided to do the walk from one end of the concourse to the other....I calculate the concourse is at least a mile and a half, so that would be 3 miles, should take another hour.....

Stopped at the farthest end from my London gate....to catch my breath, leaned against the barrier of a flight to Texas, where the pilot, hoping NOT to have to offload the bags of a missing passenger, asked me "Are you for Houston?"

Without any thought, I firmly replied "Negative!"

His look of surprised recognition and brotherhood kept me airborne all the way back to the London gate.

PS. I don't look like a pilot, I look like a granny. Heck, I am a granny.

Youngest Granny in UK is 29!!! not far off you ;)

Pace

Seems I'm still not a pilot.

When your in the car at a junction;

'Clear left'

....when you tell people on the phone to 'Standby'.

As a kid, I did that. I growed up now. while thinking about it, I'm wondering if a 757 would fit...

...when you locate and turn on the overhead 'courtesy' light in your car as if you are selecting landing lights 'on' in an A320...

...when you compulsively pull out the choke of your car every ten minutes and count to ten.

when.........
 

you declare items in your car 'U/S' without thinking to your confused passenger constantly pushing the window switch................

...when you'd rather fly than have sex.

I had a customer ring me at work, and at the end of the conversation he asked "are you a pilot?" and I was thinking WTF how the hell does he know. He said that I had read out all the letters from a product code using the phonetic alphabet. Didn't realise that I had until he told me!

the highlight of your week is spending an hour cramped in an overpriced spam can :E

FS :ok:

The nice women in the garage looks at you strangely when you say the new exhaust you have just had fitter "has just cost me 4 hours flying"!!!!!!!
:ok:

When you do FREDA checks whilst driving along the motorway

You have just renewed all your ratings. and medical, and your Wife asks you where is the money for this years holiday !
