I flew GA once after starting with the airlines. I did it with a friend/instructor. It was extremely fun yet interesting at the same time. I was afraid to slow below about 75 on final because I figured we would fall out of the sky. Haven't been up GA flying since but I would love to get back into it because it was REAL flying. It was always fun no matter what.

For the most part I miss the fun feeling and don't have it when I am at work. Every now and again I will get it. Today was one of those days. Thunderstorms rolled through DFW early today and this afternoon I did one turn and being between layers seeing the buildups and the sun come through the cloud formations reminded me of why I will never work in an office. It reminded me of why I love this job even with the disdain I have for it at times. It reminded me of why I am a pilot.
