What is PMS?
And Nam, we’re basically agreed, considering one can’t rely on a lot of folks to use common sense. 😉 😀

Nam its really easy when you get the hang of it! Just a little concentration needed 😀 Us ladies can multi task so its no problem flying at all lol. I really don’t think you would have any problems if you wanted to learn what with all your concentration you need for your painting! 8)
You have just got to keep at it when you are learning and one day it just clicks and you think hey this is really easy! 8)May 7, 2007 at 7:46 pm #571312Right now my other hobby is gardening. I’m currently revamping 2 neglected flower beds, which means diggin out all the grass and other things that have taken root and putting in Pavers and retaining walls along with mew flowers. And there are the 2 bed that I revamped last year that still need a bunch of care.
I started this one before I remebered to take a pic, you can see the first of the little retaining walls done. And I did it all by myself! Which included digging out the old lump o’concreate that was there before.
And this one needs alot of help!

You wanna come to my house. It needs a lot of help. 😀May 7, 2007 at 8:48 pm #571315Griffiness wrote:Nambroth wrote:Oh man griff! I always wanted to be a pilot. Sigh! You make me envious!

I’d have no problem with it, that’s not my issue. I just can’t afford to take lessons to get a pilot’s license, or even afford to take a ride. My husband started taking lessons but has to stop because they were running us poor. They’re very very expensive! 🙁
When I was younger I wanted to ge a fighter pilot! But my poor eyesight kept me well away from that career.

Oh Nam that sounds so familiar…. 🙁
Do what i did, i learnt to fly in gliders down at my local Navy Base 😀
really cheap, cost between £4-£10 a launch depending on what launch it is and then 25p a minute for the plane! and then you can progress from that it really is fun!
I LOVE aircraft, i always wanted to be a pilot 🙁 Down at the navy Air Station they used to have all the Harriers and lots of the pilots came gliding to relax and of course i got to know alot of them and some of the golden oldies as well 🙄
I thought ide share this video, ive sat in all the Sea Harriers that are in it before they were decomissioned last year 😥 they were beautiful, the video is at the base where i fly 😀

Nam there are still people flying their private planes down there who are 65+ you have plenty of time!!!
I also had my first sighting of the most AMAZING plane in the world at the base, sorry i love her sooooo much i wish we had enough money to get her flying again and sort her out.

Beautiful? Beg to differ, Griffiness, but the Harrier was one of the ugliest jets ever made, IMHO. The concept was great, but my goodness, couldn’t they have given it a little class, more like a Su-27? 😛
May 8, 2007 at 1:44 pm #571320If you want class you want this… 😀

Another delta wing lol!
That Su 27 isn’t really to my taist, yuckie. i like the F 16 better in that style 😀
The Harrier isn’t ugly its cute! look at it from the front?

May 8, 2007 at 2:04 pm #571321The F-16 is pretty, but I think the Russians are beautiful. Eurofighters are okay, but I can’t say I like the delta wing much. I really like bent wings, like on Eagles and MiGs and Sukhois.
Thanks for the links. I’ll check them out after work.May 8, 2007 at 2:08 pm #571322Yes, someday I’ll be able to afford to start with glider lessons! They are more expensive over here in the states though. I wonder why?? 😯
I’ll never have enough money to own even a small airplane, but I hope someday later in life to be able to get an ultra lite aircraft, that would be wonderful!! Most of the time you can buy a good one for the price of a lower end car.
F16s are my favorite aircraft. They’re versatile and visually appealing to me. I play Falcon 4.0 AF, a flight simulator that is the closest thing you can get to flying a real one without being in the air force.
I also really like A10s, they’re beautiful in an ugly way. They’re awesome at what they do, too.
