Just curious how much "trickle-down" aviation there is among us?

Dad was an Air Force fighter pilot so I claim that it's in the genes.
So what if it took me until age 40 to get my PPL. :-)

I'm 47 now, and plan to have either sport pilot or glider before I'm 53.
Kind of a long time, but that is the best I can afford.

I have an uncle that was a pilot, long ago, and my sister got her PP ticket,
just for a challenge, I think. She was current for less than a year.

Me? I LOVE anything mechanical. Ideally, I want to build my own design.
That would be my biggest high. BFG
