First, thank you for the birthday wishes!

I'm a bit curious as to the ages of some of the Flight Simmers. At just 79 surely I'm not the oldest in the game?

Like Trap and Skeet Shooting a person can go on forever, having fun, learning and associating with good people in the Flight Simulation game.

Here's to many more years of flying and learning and admiring the talent of the programmers!:encouragement:

Not sure, but I think Helldiver may be the most senior SOH member? I will be 62 soon, as well....August 7. NC
 
I'll be a young 70 this September.:wiggle: I took my first flight in the backseat of a Piper J3 when I was 8. I soloed a Cessna 150 in 1966 while stationed at Charleston Air Force Base, Charleston, S.C. I spent four years in the Air Force as a C-130 loadmaster. I obtained my private pilot's license in 1977.

Eric, you're just a baby..lol! I turned 62 last January. I've been with the SOH since the days of Netwings and CFS2 online. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Old Airman.

I turned 73 in April and had my first flight in an AT-6 Texan around 1949, which ignited a passion for military aircraft that continues to this day.

While in the VT ANG from 1966 to 1972 I had several flights in a T-33 "T-Bird", a TF-102 "Deuce" and a C-47 "Gooney Bird".

Later I got my PPL and over the years flew several different GA aircraft all around New England and upstate New York.
 
#69 for me in October. First flight was in a Klemm Swallow as a 4 year old sitting on my father's knee. Something that wouldn't happen today.
 
I am still a 'Spring Chicken' (according to my better half). I 'turned' 75 last May. Happy BD Old Airman. You are never too old to enjoy the Sims. that's for sure.
