Flying (halfway through pilot training), scuba diving, travel, reading, and I hope to take up sailing later this year. I tend to enjoy things that combine multiple skills and disciplines into one activity. For example, becoming a pilot requires proficiency in a variety of technical areas such as navigation, weather, and aircraft operating procedures, but it also requires learning airmanship and the art of flying the plane by feel. We spent several hours this week doing takeoffs and landings with the entire instrument panel covered with a towel, to get used to flying the plane with only your sensory input to guide you. Enough rambling though :)
- yan 17y agoI really enjoyed flying when I used to fly. After ~35 hours, I ended up soloing twice and then had to stop. (Initially due to a long stretch of poor weather, then a re-evaluation of my financial situation :))
- rubyrescue 17y agoi loved flying and hope to go back to doing some at some point. i have about 150 hours, flew some fun high performance and complex aircraft. just too expensive to keep up...
- ryanwaggoner 17y agoI initially started in 2007 and took a 2.5 year break for financial reasons. We'll see how it turns out this time...maybe I'll end up flying ultralights or something :)
