any of you guys into flying/aviation?

real funny guy...lol...seriously..into the flying thing? anyone?

Flying
 

Yep!
Not only do I have a Commercial with Instrument ticket but
I have built three full sized aircraft, an EAA biplane, a Volksplane II and a Verieze. The Varieze will travel at 200 mph on 100 hp and carry two people 1000 miles.

But golf as explained in The Golfing Machine and translated into everyday practice by Yoda and golf club fitting and building are now taking up my spare time.

Why the flying question in this forum?

I flew Cessnas for a few years and did some hot air ballooning before I realize how expense ballooning is- LOL. My last venture with aviation was learning to fly a tail dragger and pull banners along the Jersey Shore but it never got past a few hours of flight time. My best time in the air was flying some old Stearmans with big loud Lycomings in the front, crabbing sideways down to the runway to land without flaps. I love the open cockpit. I still want to fly a WWII Grumman 4F4 Wildcat. I never flew above the wings of an aircraft and I always loved watching Ba Ba Black Sheep on TV.

The Rutan VariEze sounds like a great little plane. Burt Rutan is a modern day idol of mine.

Flying and TGM? The Angle of Attack. LOL And I think Yoda was an Air Force Man.
