First impressions of flight

What did you notice most during your very first experience travelling in any
type of airplane, as passenger or pilot? And if you are a pilot, what did you
notice most during your very first experience actually flying an airplane (if
it was not also your very first experience with flight)?

They say that if you are doing something unusual and you are reasonably
occupied, you're less likely to resort to nervous habits, which can include
smoking.

But after was another story

You smoked more than usual? Why?

I am curious. Stress, perhaps?

I noticed it was EXACTLY like Microsoft Flight Simulator.

There are no differences at all.

It's really the same thing.


Please do not feed the troll.

You get curious when you're stressed out?

You're a k00k of the brightest magnitude.

I was 10 years old, it was in a Piper Tripacer.

Dreamed of what it would be like ever since I knew that airplanes
could take me to the clouds....

Hoped it would be the greatest experience in my (at that time) young
life..

It was .. it did NOT disappoint.....

The pilot allowed, and coached me to handle the controls, could not
believe I was actually flying!!

Could never get enough..grabbed every chance I could get to fly..

22 yrs later was able to take training and get my licence....

Flew twice this past weekend, hope to do it again next weekend...

And again and again until I cannot..

A passion that survives all reason..

I am told there are others who feel the same..

I found some of them..

They are my friends...

The frame rate was really good, and all the autogen was turned on.
