Default Things to do as a private pilot ?

Since my family is not thrilled by the idea of flying in a small plane,
and I get bored flying solo, I am wondering what other venues there are
for a (VFR) pilot to fly people around. Basically I am looking for
excuses to do scenic flights within a 100 NM radius of San Diego.
CAP and Angel Flights sound rather stressful. Does
pilotsharetheride.com have a good reputation? Any other ideas ?

If I can find out where Skylune lives in NH I'll give ya his address so
you can buzz him. He loves the attention.

A hot chick that'll fly will surely get your wife interested in
flying!


In the majority of aviation accidents with a man and woman on board, the
two are not married to each other.

I got some posing history for "grubertm" in rec.aviation. I'm going with
....Not Spam.

http://www.pilotsharetheride.com/

I want to know if people have used it - or know of someone who's used it? I
really like the idea. It's been around for a while now. ANYONE??

Get a girl friend.


Well, yes. That too. :-)

Join the EAA and give some young eagles a ride. The more kids we get
addicted to our fun the better chances of it existing in the future.
The smiles on their faces as the get out of the plane after their first
flight is " PRICELESS"....

Meet up with other pilots on the weekend and fly to some restaurant

I remember reading about a 99s air race and the writer was
telling about her emergency landing and she had to get
dressed in the cockpit. She had been sunbathing under the
bubble canopy when the engine began to run rough.

I've heard of dual cross-countries that got weathered in out
of town, seems to happen with 36 year old CFIs (male) and 20
something female students.

That always seemed to be unethical.
