Glad to hear it.  It had the same effect on me, but then I went out
and took and intro flight in a Cessna 150 in April 2002, took flying
lessons, got my private pilot's license in a rented Cessna 172 in
August 2002, bought a 1979 Piper Warrior II in December 2002, got my
night rating in early 2003, got my instrument rating in July 2003, and
now also fly as a volunteer pilot for Hope Air ferrying around
patients and their escorts (I did my first flight a couple of weeks
ago), with about 375 hours in my logbook.

So, be warned, FlightGear really *is* addictive, and a bit hard on the
bank account as well.


All the best,


David
