Good morning Mr. Phelps... (sorry, just had to say that) I learned to fly back in '83. Started in a Traumahawk, moved to Warrior and Archer post-solo. Flew an Archer with HSI and 3-axis coupled autopilot on my long X-Country. Flew a lot of time in 172's, the later ones with all the pretty stuff in the panel (not the new generation). Was right on track at the 'Flying Country Club' to move on up into the 182s, the RGs, the Mooney, the Bonanzas. The kind of planes I grew up flying in. Yet I was bored and took some years off flying as a result. Came back, was still bored by the 172. Caught some time in a 7AC, and in a Stearman, discovered I liked flying again. Put a Quicksilver MX and a Comanche side-by-side, and ask me which I want to fly today, and unless we've somewhere to go, I'll go sit in the Quicksilver and dare you to get me out. Progress is what you make of it.
