What other aircraft have you flown? What do you want to fly?

TBM handles much like a Mooney, except much quicker to altitude, and almost as fast as Bob's E ;)

Goodyear blimp ride was lots of fun, very quiet, and a bit slower than Bob's E ;) ;)

Haha! Ya the blimp was the oddest thing I've flown. 1.5 in the left seat. Actually very enjoyable!

The DH-2 Beaver is near the top of my list. Really like to end up with an fabric wing 8a Luscombe one day. These 2 just fly really nice!

However, not to many airplanes can do 155kts on 9.0 an hour. Let alone with 4 seats like the M20e.

Anyone fly a hot air ballon? I really want to do this.

 

I have ridden as a passenger, but not as PIC, or in any way manipulating the controls. It's fun and you should go for it, but you have to pick a good day. You need wind, but not too much wind. The day I went, there was almost zero wind, so we really couldn't go to far. I did it in Sedona.

I have flown all Mooneys, stock and heavily modified, including the Rocket & Missile conversions, except for the Mustang, and the M20A/B/D.

 

 

Even the M-18 and M-10?

Adamsboomer go,fly a 172. It's like driving a Mustang, everyone has done it. I haven't flown a 152 though, I'd like to and hope I fit in it. I talked to the balloon guys the other day and the guy that answered was the dpe for central Florida. He had some frat stories and I am pretty sure I'm going to go for a balloon private pilot added category some day. I get excited just thinking about it.
