Sounds good. Then why did he stop flying? I'm still a low-time
pilot, but I can't imagine suddenly stopping flying and, to all
appearances, not thinking about it again.

Agree 100%. But I've known a fair number of people who have learned to fly,
flown for a while, and then quit. Some were even aircraft owners, which
meant they had REALLY gone down the aviation rabbit-hole.

I have no idea how they can do it -- or why. But I'll admit I never quite
trust them again after I find out they were "once" pilots.
