Don't you feel things with your hands? Now if you're flying open cockpit, I guess you feel things with a lot of other parts of your body too, especially your face... Paul No sense of humour at all either |

How do you feel when you fly the plane?
I waited 35 years before learning to fly. I am now 45, and regard the first 35 years of my life as wasted time, spent standing on the ground gazing skyward. When I'm in the sky, I am happy. And when I'm on the ground, I want to be in the sky. It's a terrible addiction. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Matter of fact- I have seen planes only in sky. Till this date, I have not touched any plane or even saw it closely. No chance to become Pilot at the age of 34. Why? I am 41 and I just started taking lessons last year. And I think I am well on my way to the PPL, maybe 2 or 3 more months. I know of many people who started even later and there are always those (true!) stories of someone starting to learn flying well beyond their sixties. As long as you are in reasonably good health you can become a pilot. jue |

And I just pray before God to give me spirit and opportunity to fly in blue sky, over clouds, seas, mountains, deserts... -Abhi. ========================== Om...

I would characterize today's aircraft, relative to the early aircraft, as masterpieces of engineering efficiency. Too many relative terms here. What is meant by "early aircraft", those of the era of the Wright Bros? What are "today's aircraft"? The ones built forty-some years ago, that most of us are flying around in today? Or are we referring to the ones coming out of the factories "today"? |

Which one of those places are you in?
There are flying clubs in India which will take you for a half hour lesson. I've visited ones in Madras and Calcutta. Maybe around Rs 2000-2500. It will be worth it. http://civilaviation.nic.in/igrua/ind_text.htm Has a list of flying clubs in India. Paul "Abhi" wrote in message m... But I can afford the fare of plane for some distance like Bombay-Delhi. And sometime in future I am planning to experience how you people feel in blue sky up there. |
