F-in A! Done this on many occasions.

Greasing the 47,000 lbs hollow metal tube with 53 people on board in a 25kt gusting to 35kt crosswind to end a 4-day trip.

Doing a pre-flight walk around on a cool, crisp, sunny winter day and knowing that it won't be long before I'm flying this beautiful beast.

Once flew a Stearman from Wetumpka AL to Columbus GA at 1500'. Passing north of Tuskegee I thought about the area I was in was probably swarming with Stearmans back in the day. Another memorial flight was taking my engineer father-in-law up in a Cub and letting him fly it. I think he wore a smile for days. And of course all the gorgeous sunsets we get to see from the air.
