Actually, he would have had to fly 2 hours a day, 365 days a year, missing
NO days, from the time he was 17 until now. Spoke with a retired Delta
pilot the other day. He has a bit over 17000 hours, including Marine
reserve time. According to him, in the "old" days, a retired airline pilot
would average about 22-24000 hours, but since the changes, starting in the
70's, most average about the same as he. The avergae aircraft owner/pilot
flies about 95-125 hours a year, according to the stats. You figure out who
is telling the truth.

Just my .02. YMMV

A commercially rated pilot, Campbell has earned Flight instructor Ratings
(CFI/A/I/ME/H) in fixed and rotary wing aircraft, and logged over 17,000
flight
hours in over 1100 different ultralights, jets, multi-engine A/C,
helicopters,
gyroplanes, autogyros, sailplanes, seaplanes, kit aircraft and general
aviation
birds.

Has anybody done the math on 17,000 flight hours?

If you flew one hour a day, it would take you 47 years to get 17,000
hours.
