Yall remember your first Pilot Log?

A tad over 1800 for me.

I have a little over 1k logged. I didnt bother logging more than a couple hours a year in my 20s. I flew them, I just didn't log them.
I did have to cover one eye and tell my friends to be quiet one time so I could land a plane. I'm not proud of that but it happened... time or two

Flown in a few but never flew one. I hear they are like flying a top.

I flew both rotor and fixed wing in the Army. Most pilots learn to fly fixed wing first then transition to helos and think flying a helicopter is much harder. Most Army pilots do the opposite and think flying fixed wing is harder, initially anyway. It’s all about space and time and prospective I guess.

I have one from BOAC on my first trip back to Britain. I wasn't flying the plane, just flying on the plane. Pretty exciting time for a kid.

The first unit I was in had those made up. It was the unofficial company patch. We would ditch the real one and sport it during the Friday afternoon “counseling sessions” at the o-club bar, just in case some red azzed infantry colonel got offended by our jocularity tried to ID our unit and line us for some penis envy lashing come Monday morning.

The real deal company patch is bottom left.

If you say so man. You have to see the world from the sky

I've gave it some thought, but I'm a sissy when it comes to heights. Sometimes I get queezy in the stomach near edges on mountain roads.

This IS what you are talking about right? I did it too for a short while but never kept a log.
Please God tell me this is what you are talking about....

Flew growning up as Dad was a Delta pilot. I've flown BIL planes a little after many years in the right seat and didn't try to land. He sold those and now has a jet, so not likely will be flying that any.
