Any pilots here?

[aztec1987]

Just curiosity, does anyone here is a private, airline, recreational, sport, or bush pilot? If so what was the aircraft you first learn to fly? Glass cockpit or steam gauge instruments? What you currently are flying?

Private Pilot - SEL. Soloed many years ago in a Piper Warrior 161. Graduated from Embry-Riddle in '84 with a B.S. in Aviation Administration. Flew C172's while there.

I'm just a lurker here, mostly, but I've been flying since 1998. I started in a C-172. After that I flew Piper Warriors, Arrows, and Seminoles in college. Then I went to the airlines and flew the Dash 8 and EMB-145. After about 9 years I got fed up with that scene and took a job running a collegiate flight program that had Piper Archers, a couple of Bonanzas, and a Baron. Now I'm flying medevac in King Air 200s.

What a sorry state when being an airline pilot is a scene that you "get fed up with". And we're starting to hear the same with doctors. Maybe when they cut corporate taxes the airlines and medical groups will pay pilots and doctors more? Yeah, I'm not holding my breath, either.
