Since I've never tried to fly a real plane, it's impossible to know
whether I could fly one or not.

No it isn't.



I soloed in 10 hours.

That's okay; it's not a race.

You're not even watching the race on TV, fjukkwit.



At the time, the plane and instructor totaled $18/hr.

I wasn't around in World War II.

That would have been in the seventies, not WW2, fjukkwit.

In 1962 the rate per hour solo (NZ pounds) was 3 Pound 10 shillings in
a C150
When I did my PPL (in 1967) the rate was $10(NZ) per hour solo and $12
dual in a C150.
