Default Welcome back!

Spoon 11th! ...speaking from personal experience as a 172 Cessna pilot, who's taxed across busy runways, and long-hauler 18 wheeler myself; both me and my neighbor (74 )quit flying as our required total 'situational-awareness' ability is shot..and took up sailing!! Nearsightedness , deafness(even with widex aids bluetuthed to headsets,) and reflexes) preclude safe flying out of a public airport. A 95 year old ex WWII navy pilot buddy still flies his Citabria plane but always has a co-pilot he hires with him? All my '70's ROTC classmates had to retire from their post-military commercial airline jobs at age 60ish and don't miss it....I think Han Solo's 'millenium falcon 'daze' should end...and I wouldn't appreciate anyone crash-landing on my golfcourse in the middle of my backswing either, celebrity or otherwise!
