    Go enjoy your time :p I can't go first week at all. I have to go to church like all week because our easter is delayed one week (orthodox).

    Believe me, it is. :)

    It has it's good and bad sides to it, but for me, the good far outweighs the bad. You should go up for a flight one day, just to see what it's like. (Prob cost you $150-$180 for an hour). It's worth it!

    Yea, gliding to be specific. AKA we launch with our engine, literally fold it away then we become an aircraft with no engine! It's pretty fun, probably got like 15 hours only though....I plan on beginning my PPL when I turn 16 though and going every weekend or every fortnight.

    Yeah, JAL could've been so easily avoided....and the amount of people that were involved sucked.

    I touched it because my dad worked at the airport and they had an open day when I was a lot younger (Like 2 or 3?) and my dad took me over to that plane because at the time the colours looked awesome to me haha. Pretty weird thinking, wow, that plane I actually touched is gone along with the lives of ~80 people. If you're interested....

    I like pilot errors (not that they're good) because I can learn from them and hopefully not make the same mistakes as a pilot myself.

    Hmmm, Singapore Flight 006 hit's pretty hard home to me because I've actually touched the aircraft itself. So that one was one I investigated thoroughly. Mandarin Flight 642 is another one, and JAL123. But my overall 'favourite' would have to be United 232, Al Haynes is a legend.

    They tend to be the most interesting events though! (Well at least I find it that way, so maybe I'm morbid too).

    Yeah the Cavalese disaster was terrible....updated charts was all that was needed to avoid it. :(
    (Ironically I was researching it the other night)

    I like to dig through archives more on the internet now rather than watching TV, I like investigating the little unknown incidents in my spare time. (Yeah pretty sad haha).
