Flying is flying. After thousands of hours the edges don't hold a lot
of excitement.
Except for the different engine noise (prop vs jet) it's hard to tell
going balls to the wall (and super sonic) in a J-3 and a supersonic
fighter. When you go through the sound barrier it's just like sitting
in your easy chair at home. Those who have flown the Concorde don't
know they are super sonic until they read the Mach meter on bulkhead
behind the cockpit.
I enjoy flying anything. Flying precision in any type of aircraft is a
challengingly operation and gives me enjoyment.
Nuff said???????

Yeah, I've often wondered how weird it must feel for an ex-military pilot to
fly a Spam can. Sorta like transitioning from a Kawasaki racing bike back
to a scooter, I would think?
How 'bout it, Big John (or other military folks)? Is flying a lowly
Skyhawk worth bothering with, after flying at Mach 2 with your hair on fire?
