On the topic of actors -- I remember seeing a list of actors
with PPL or better on the back of an aviation book or magazine.
Can't remember where. But a number of the Star Trek actors
are on the list. Ah, wait...the back cover of Rod Machado's
PPL book:

James Arness (marshall dillon!)
Dirk Benedict
Jimmy Buffett (what? you don't think that's an act onstage?)

He owns several aircraft and flys his crew around to concerts in a Falcon
(50??)

LeVar Burton (ST:TNG)
Johnny Carson
Tom Cruise
Bob Cummings
Michael Dorn (ST:TNG)

Owns/fly his own Sabre (corp jet, not the F86)

Dennis Quaid
