I'm the guy, I guess, that Dan Ford was talking about. I posted a
couple
of
days ago that the only skill I saw atrophy with age was..interest. I
went
from flying B-1Bs to C-172s. I just couldn't get into it. I was
spending
$100+ to cruise at 20kts+ slower than B-1 touchdown speed. It's not an
arrogance thing...it just isn't exciting enough for me to spend the
money
anymore.

You sound like a candidate for a Lancair!

Then you'd at least be in flaps range of a B-1...


I saw a For Sale ad on the web recently for Jim Lovell's Beech Baron. That
musta been a real comedown after driving a Saturn V.
