A question for Danny!!
 

Hope you don't think I'm a nosey bast*** but looking at your logbook on e-logbooks I saw that you had a massive gap in your flight training of nearly 10 years.

Could I ask- or is this to a bit too probing <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> why you had such a long gap? Especially seeing that you had around 100 hrs PIC before the gap.

. .Thanks,

Question for ILS27R - e-logbooks? I am hopelessly out of date?

It was 8 years and 190 hours. I had to give up flying because I could't afford it. Instead I had to work and earn money, build up equity and finally released that equity to pay for my professional training.

I was 34 when I renewed my PPL and took the plunge into commercial flight training.

Thanks Capt Pprune for that. Always wondered when I saw your logbook why there was a big gap. Sorry if I got your vital stats wrong!! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

You tend to think that once you decide that flying is what you want to do with your life, you do everything in your power to keep at it! Howcome you didn't start your commercial training earlier? I realise that things were different back then, but surely with 190hrs you were almost there; would it have cost that much more to do a BCPL and instructors rating?? Sorry again for probing <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> , its just that I'm interested!

KillKenny, e-logbook is a website that acts as an electronic logbook. Its great and can be found here:
