I don't think so! In fact, reflecting on this some, not sure I know of *any*
kind of flying that is "dull".

I was a power pilot 1st, then got my glider add-on in '97 (USA). Besides my
glider (ASH26E), I have a Husky A1-B that is an absolute blast to fly. I can
think of dozens of adjectives, none of which truly capture the joy and
exhilaration . . . and none of which comes anywhere near "dull".

If you knew me, make that 2.
