I'm not sure that I'd want to ride in one, but they sound very cool from a distance. I've never taken much interest in riding inside a military fighter aircraft, but they are often cool to look at (with ear protection). There are some very tempting-looking payware add-on P-51s for Flight Simulator as well (which I believe were originally pointed out to me by yourself). |

So the guy doesn't like his job, and wishes he was on the beach. Yawn. Glad he wasn't my instructor. How many flight instructors like their job? How many are just impatiently trying to build hours so that they can work as airline pilots one day? The current arrangement has always bothered me, since it seems to ensure that the people teaching new pilots are always people without an interest in teaching, who are just passing through a revolving door. Another couple of thousand feet and a headset he would have flying cool, calm, and quiet. Maybe that wasn't practical at the time. |

There are some very tempting-looking payware add-on P-51s for Flight Simulator as well (which I believe were originally pointed out to me by yourself). If you have a love for flight you would thoroughly enjoy flying in a WW2 prop fighter like a Mustang. Even to experienced pilots flying a Mustang for the first time is unique. The sheer power on takeoff is unbelievable. Your ears in the cockpit are just about lined up with the exhaust stacks and as I said, the noise is horrendous. The experience is so unique that you seldom will find a pilot or even a non-pilot who would suddenly discover they like it. It's strange really, but I can say with some degree of authority that in my own experience anyway, those who love this experience came to it by choice seeking it out. I know I did. I was extremely fortunate in my career to have had the chance to fly these airplanes. I've never regretted a moment I spent in them. You're right about the P51 for the simulator. Watch the A2A Simulations website if you're interested. They are developing for FSX what I consider to be the definitive Mustang for the sim pilot. THis aircraft will exhibit a flight model and graphics so deep into fidelity and realism that I wouldn't hesitate to use it in checking out a pilot in the P51D. If I recall correctly I believe you favor flying other types of airplanes in the sim, but if you ever do decide to purchase a WW2 prop fighter for your simulator I'll be glad to help you out with tips on flying it.

How many flight instructors like their job? Of the 5 CFIs I've already met and can name (Rena, King, Mark, Martin, Dorothy,) I believe all of them enjoy teaching. Some I know have said as much. These are the outfits they are connected with: http://www.kpflight.com/coburgtraining.htm http://www.abouttimeaviation.com/contact.html http://www.takewinginc.com/aboutus.html How many are just impatiently trying to build hours so that they can work as airline pilots one day? None of the one I know of are "building time." Two more local CFIs, who I expect to eventually meet, Paul and Jess, have been teaching for about 20 years, each. If they have plans for airline work they seem to be mighty slow about it. The current arrangement has always bothered me, since it seems to ensure that the people teaching new pilots are always people without an interest in teaching, who are just passing through a revolving door. I believe you are simply parroting claims made by other people elsewhere. Another couple of thousand feet and a headset he would have flying cool, calm, and quiet. Maybe that wasn't practical at the time. The author makes the mistake of assuming everyone else shares his values and preferences. |
