The main reasons are a lack of money and health, but there are other
reasons as well. With respect to this particular article, small
aircraft tend to be noisy, bumpy, and uncomfortable, and a PPL has
little else to look forwards to unless he has unlimited funds and
time. Like Patrick Smith, I don't enjoy being distracted by heat,
noise, etc. I'm glad to see pilots admitting the same.


Hell old buddy, if you think small airplanes are noisy you should
experience a takeoff in a P51. Now THAT'S noise!!
:-))


It's another fuel-to-noise converter. Heh.
