I've had a glider rating since I was about 20 or so, though I haven't had a biannual or been near a glider for at least 12 years. I may start up again someday......

Got my private when I turned 16 (back in the day).

Spent 6 years flying CH-46's in the USMC.

Flew King Airs & Conquests in Texas for about 3000 hours after the Corps.

Got hired by a "Major Airline" headquartered in Chicago 10 years ago. I've flown the 727, 737-200, DC-10, 747-400, and I'm going to school on the 777 next month.

Happy for the job, cause I don't know how to do anything else!

I wanna learn how to fly a helicopter and airplanes. Helicopter first... and possibly get a job with the CHP or some news station... or private pilot. Who knows.
