Default Do sim pilots log their time?

"What turbulence?"

or

"Yeee - HAH"

or

"Rock-n-roll!"

I really miss him - would like to show him how good I'm getting at
"turbulence tolerance" - but he flew a Baron into a mountaintop a year
and a half ago.


Are you sure it was bravery?

Maybe it's true what they say about old pilots and bold pilots?
