You mean real people actually have real sex? ;-)

Single ones do.

Would that require an ATPL?

I, too, played with MSFS for a long time. There really is no comparison.
It's
kind of like flipping through Playboy versus having sex...

Na... I'd say it was more like having sex with a rubber blow up doll vs. the
real thing.

Ah, rubber versus latex you mean? Yes, I know, quite a different feeling
altogether.

You have to LOVE this forum. There's an expert on everything here.

On piece of advice - go get your medical now before you start, rather than
getting into it and then finding an issue that stops you soloing. Hopefully
you're in good shape and this will not be an issue.

I'm 48, and time to have me som fun...
Been flying as a passenger since I was 8 months, have had 102 flights on
commercial flights that I can recall ...
Have flown Schweizer 232 sailplanes, and Cessna 172's (not take off or
landings.)
Have played with MS Flight Sim since 1995, and probably have logged over
400 hours of flight on that game....the new ATC versions make it more fun.

I understand flight theory and dynamics, and have felt at home and at ease
while behind the yoke or stick while in the 172 and 232's.

So I looked at flight training, and here west of Toronto at the Guelph
airport, it's about $4500 allowing me to carry one passenger, $7500 to
carry multiple passengers, or $8500 (plus 200 hrs @ $125/hr) for
commercial pilot...(all in Canadian $$$)

So I have time, might as well go for the commercial licence, and have me
some fun...not that it will get me a job by the time I'm done (I'll be
51 - 52 by my training timeline).

Never too late, and since having sex with Jeannie (Barbara Eden) is out of
the question (Hey, she's still hot for 72), I might as well fulfill
anpother dream, eh?
