He is still an aviation enthusiast. It beats the 'let-close

I mean, there are quite a few things I am enthusiastic about
and in which I stand very little chance of ever participating,
for instance space exploration or some sports, and about which
I probably hold quite a few misconceptions, so I can somehow
relate.

How dare you dash my hopes? I'm only 66 and was still planning on

Would you suggest creating a new forum requiring a valid pilot
certificate number to participate?
