I carry my aircraft keys in my pocket. My headsets are in the plane,
plugged in. My logbook is in the plane. My charts are right where I
need them, in their special place, in the plane. My sunglasses are
tucked away into their place, in the plane. If I feel like it, I drive
out to the airport, push it out of the hangar and away I fly! I don't
have to ask anyone's permission, sign any forms or any of that rental
stuff. It's about FREEDOM!!!!!


Getting my first plane was like getting my first car, and there are not a
lot of ways to get those good teenage level rushes decades later.

Well put, Doug!
