hitech

I was just reading your post on the spinner comming off of your plane, and was wondering what you fly? Are you instrument rated? I'm a private pilot with 236 hours and fly a 1964 172, I'm thinking about getting my instrument rating. Just curious. Also if anyone else is a pilot out there what do you fly?

Commercial Single/Multi Instrument CFI/MEI

Working on my CFII right now - got about 270 hours. Most of it is in 172's but I've also logged time in 152s, 172 RGs, and Piper Seminoles - in other words nothing too exciting.

I start lessons again this summer. I soloed a Cessna 175 in high school, but ran out of money. Had to divert it to college tuition. Did a little flying in a glider one of the Universities clubs owned, but that blew away in a wind storm.

I fly a bit. I have 283 hours currently and just obtained my instrument. Most hours in a 80' 172 and probably 70 hours or so in a little old 150. Lately I have been flying a 1999 206. Funnest plane I've flown is a SR22 (only flew it 1.5)

I am an AH 'beta' graduate and also had extensive experience in AH1 and now AH2. I have not updated the logbook in a while, but my wife would say I have WAY too many hours logged in the air.

Actually come to think of it I have more hours flying a 'chute' than anything else. Sigh.....
