Question, how many here are involved with real airplanes?

Q. How do you know there's a pilot at a party?
A. He'll let you know.

A few years ago I built an ultralight and learnt to fly on it. While waiting for SOW, I keep the Great White North safe from enemy intruders in my ultralight:

Man, if that really is you flying that thing, you are insane!
Great clip.
Me, I don't qualify for the parameters of the survey, but have about 4 hours done over 25 years in light aircraft.
Always something else to spend the hard earned on.
Also love musems and airshows.

Hi Dutch. It's not as crazy as it seems in the video. You can do wonders with editing
