Do you have a "family history" of aviation/piloting?
Nope
Are you an adventure seeker
Not really. Not any further than final glide.
Are you constantly seeking new challenges?
frequently but not constantly
"thirst for knowledge" ( rather be in school than working)?
Like school but it doesn't pay as well
(subpart) Do you find yourself constantly seeking out new things
about flying regularly or do you only look it up when you run across
something you don't know.
As a glider pilot, I learn something new EVERYTIME I'm out. Nature throws a
wide range of variables at me.
Are you a "control freak" (type-a)?
Uh, hands on stick and release. Go where the lift is. On the ground, Que Sera,
Sera
Do you have hints of "delusions of grandeur?" or is it more like "I'm
on top of the world when I fly"
Altitude is attitude. I get kinda low..when I'm low.
Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
If I were introverted any further, I'd be inside out.
If given the choice, would you rather read fiction or an aviation
oriented book?
Fiction book about aviation, or aviation book about fiction.
Do you find that you have always had good communication skills?
yep
Are you left brained or right brained (logic-and-math or Artsy fartsy)?
Artist
Or am I missing something soooo obvious that I'll die of embarassment
when it's pointed out to me? Or even worse, is there no measurable
psychological correlation to flying and I'm just out to lunch
(wouldn't be the first time g)
What?
Note:
However maybe a question along the lines of "while
in school did you consider yourself to be a good student" would be
better.
I thought I was a good student, its my teachers who didn't agree.
I like to fly (soaring) because it is visceral, beautiful, unusual, cerebral,
and less expensive than airplanes. Though admittedly It ain't so good for
getting from A to B.
I do enjoy the occasional motoring around but thats just not where its at for
me.
