Default real life use of general aviation for this newsgroup

I've checked my log book, and it looks like almost all of my flights
are XC of one sort or another. That is, the airplane is pretty much
used the way I use my car. It's a convenient way to make a trip that's
a few hundred to a thousand miles long. Not all of the trips are
necessary (just as not all of the car trips I make are necessary,
either). Very few flight legs terminate at the same airport as where
the flight started.

If you're a fairly experienced pilot -- say 300 plus hours -- what is
your usage profile like?

Mostly cross country. Last year it was about 2/3 travel towork
locations and 1/3 personal vacations and family visits. If I am not
flying enough to get the fix I need, I do take some flights just to
fly, but at the present time that is rare.

Because I fly, I envy no one.
