Inactive RW pilots unite and untie!

[JimD737 0]

So,With MS exercising the "fuel shutoff valve," how many other inactive pilots like me will be slowly moving back to the RW cockpit?After my AME died about two years ago, I let my medical lapse. It was a miracle if he got the EKG thingy to work right on the third try. Nice guy though.To tell you the truth I missed it, but not the cold. At times I was too busy to notice I missed it.If you are in the skies between KTTN & KPNE in 2009, watch out for a rental 172 not using enough rudder, flying a B52 pattern and usually above the visual glideslope.How about you?Jim

Probably not. My class II lapsed about five years ago, shortly before I began building a 727. Flying (and building) the 727 sim is still cheaper than renting around here. I've thought about it though and I don't want to say 'never', because I probably will eventually climb back into Cessna or Piper cockpit at some point down the road.
