Johe02 - Snap! Only I was 48 and the women were about the age of my daughter!

I felt elated and disgusted with myself at the same time

Doing a "full on" at the end of the test for my CPL and knowing I got it!

My favorite moment...
 

During my wedding! When I saw the expression of my wife...SURPRISE!!! Hers first flight!
Thankfully a very nice flight with the EC120...

Today ......
 

Doing stuck controls for the first time and landing with my cyclic hand on my knee.

Yeah, I know the cyclic was stuck "in the the right place". But it was a buzz to work those secondary effects to my advantage for once. :ok:

Closing the door, walking away, knowing I am alive enough to enjoy another pint of Brakspears....

I used to fly for US Fish & Wildlife part time---they own Merritt Island which is where Cape Canaveral is..... I lit a controlled fire there back in 05 or 06--forget which now, but we burnt all around launch pad 39---will try to find pictures.

My Favourite memory,

My very first Solo at EGNH, take off, wide curcuit and land, followed by 5 more with a stupid Grin and laughter most of the way round..!:D

Bell 47 (crop sprayer) under the mid section of Barton Bridge over the then M63, noticing a bloke with a Jack Russell walking the canal bank both looking mildly astonished as we screamed through. I was pax and cant wait to do it again:D
