My friend started asking me to be a safety pilot in his Mooney when he reached his mid 80s. After one flight, he said he would be away the following week. "I'm going skiing" he explained.


I flew for almost 40 years and always had said I would retire at 70, I did!! I do miss it but don't regret it.
