Any pilots in here?

I'm about 1/4 of the way through my private pilot's certification, and was wondering if there are any other flyers on this forum?

I signed up for one lesson once and then found out how much the rest of the lisensing requirements would be and never bothered taking a second lesson.

My dad is, I could easily put in the time to do it in his Cessna, but I have no interest. Not my cup of tea. In other words I can't afford a P-51.

I've looked in to it and someday I definitely want to get my license but there is no way I could afford to right now. Good luck.

I've been told that I ride/drive fast enough that if I had wing's I'd be flying... does that count?

Hitched a ride on a bunch of flights back when a buddy was going for his. I'd love to do it but I have way to many other priorities going on right now.

ive got a bunch of hours logged. made it past landing and had the school close up shop without telling anyone. that was ten years ago. havent had the motivation to try and complete since. old man is a cfii too, so it wouldnt be all that difficult

RC Aircraft pilot. Which I am told is actually harder due to perspective

I use to fly r/c helis which are harder than planes. I had a small plane for awhile as well. It is infinitely easier than piloting a real aircraft.
