Why did I become a pilot then?

Eldest of two.

Younger of 2 sons.
At the risk of being a pedantic git, youngEST or eldEST, as the superlative form, should strictly only be used in the case of 3 or more; whereas youngER or eldER, as the comparative, is appropriate for 2.
IE elder of 2, eldest of 3.
Also got 3 kids (that I know of), 2 female, one male. Is that the "g", the pressure, the booze or what?

tee-head

I'm the baby. I have two older brothers. And yes I am definitely the most creative...ie NOT a conformist

Bucking the systen here !

1. Youngest of five.

2. Learned responsibility early when my Dad died and I looked after Mum when I was 14.

3. 4 grouchy elder siblings.

4. Member of Mensa.

5. Play music.

6. Jet airline Captain and enjoy my job.

7. Don't like working for ******s.

3rd born of 4

I am youngest... my brother, oldest of four also flies. My dad retired as DC10 Capt about 10 years ago and now my 18 year old nephew is getting into the business as well.

JJ

rotorhead.

oldest of 3

Eldest of four, ex mil, and most interesting now I check data, of many fighter mates, preponderance of daughters, including self. Back at a better time of day, gotta fly!

just to confuse everyone...

I was raised an only child. (adopted)

Later I found out I was the youngest on my natural mother's side, but the oldest on my natural father's side.

So.... I was the only child, the eldest, the youngest, AND the middle child (if you combine both families). Ha! I'm a statistical nightmare. :) :)

I have to say, this must be the biggest thread
since the great religious debate.
I notice too the that the younger/est are
beginning to assert themselves.
Always looking for attention the little
tykes.
Is anyone keeping score?

Most senior of four, ex Military single crew mudmover. Brothers all 'vocational' rather than society related success stories - they're happy.
When I see who I have to fly with, I'm not always - obviously younger scions who can't really cut it.
(Or female , how do they feature in your stats so far Siggy ? )

Captain of a crew complement of four.

Helicopter pilots get it up faster !

1 of 2

2nd of 4 - big bruv got chopped on Gnats and decided to work for a living instead.

music - play the cassette recorder (badly).

cars/bikes - if snag can't be fixed by wiping mirror/emptying ashtray (on a bike?) then its obviously too technical for my little brain.

outdoor stuff - get nosebleed on top of a ladder.

star-sign - er, Methodist, I think...

Elder (thanks teeteringhead) of 2, used to beat little bro up for first 15 years until he got bigger than me, yacht sailor, conservative, turned down promotion in boring job to fly.

Agree starsign is bollix: what possible influence could the gravity of a star billions of miles away have on me?
