Unscientific survey - why are you a pilot?

In some cases looking in Jay's general direction it's because it's
an opportunity for family bonding and whathaveyou.

This description only scratches the surface of my motivation to fly.
In fact, the family bonding part of flying is more a pleasant
byproduct than a goal, to be quite honest.

I fly because I *need* to fly, as surely as any crack addict needs his
next fix. Just ask Mary what happens to me after a few weeks without
air time...

I have taken flying as far as any non-commercial pilot can, both
personally and professionally. I have infected all that I love with
my passion for flight, for better or worse. And I have a plaque on my
office wall that simply says "Flying Is Life".

It doesn't get any more succinct than that.
