Default Private pilot license

You'd be surprised at how many guys are instantly turned off when I tell
them I'm a pilot. They assume I'm gay or that I'm going to cheat on them
with the other guys I fly with. Works both ways, I guess. Maybe I should
have waited until after I was married? Of course, then I would get
comments like, "Now why would you want to do something like that? Flying's
not easy, you know."


It's not always that way.

Mary (my wife) didn't learn to fly until '99, after we'd been married 14
years. (And we dated for NINE before that...) I didn't push her (well,
much!), but was thrilled when she went through the training and got her
ticket. And I really love always having a second pilot on board -- it makes
everything easier, less stressful, and safer.

BTW: Personally, I find female pilots irresistibly sexy!
