I am a former airline pilot with about 8000 hours total time. Of the 8000 hours, almost 6000 was in transport category jets, over one half of that time as Captain. I have about 250 hours in singles; the rest of my time other than transport jets is generally light twins or the BN2A MK 111 (Trislander). I now own and fly a Beechcraft Travel Air. I was 26 when I became a captain on the 727, I am 55 at the time of this posting and have not flown an airliner in 20 years. While have no intentions to again 'fly in order to make a living' I am seriously considering getting back into the game purely for the sake of the flying itself.
