It feels like Going from 0-500 mph in about 5 minutes, and going from sea level to 43000 feet in 20 minutes.

It's pretty amazing. Breaking through a cloud layer will never get old to me.
Or flying at night when the air is smooth and you're somewhere remote and then a city of lights will start to appear in the distance is pretty cool too.
There's no better feeling than greasing a great landing either.

I could only imagine 
How do you troubleshoot any occurring problems? How has flying improved over the years concerning safety and smooth flights?

It's quite exciting when a missile is chasing you.

Checklist. There's a checklist for everything.

We're currently in the safest stretch of air travel ever.

After thousands of hours in fixed wing I flew my first helicopter.
I isn't that hard.

I'm at PDX watching planes fly by, wasting time for a few more hours. It looks effortless, landing after landing, take off after another. What is it like flying an airliner? a plane of any type? Helicopters?
I have my private pilot's license and can tell you, it's probably the best thing I've ever done. It gives you a completely different perspective of things to slip the surly bonds of Earth and dance on the sky looking down on earth from a 3-D perspective. I fly a 172 based out of Slidell and love going every chance I get. It's not as effortless as it seems because the most stressful part of flying is landing but, there is nothing sweeter than when you grease one!

I can only imagine what it's like to fly a 777. Must be sweet.

One of my favorite videos.
F-16 Patrol
This video pissed me off
It seemed like it was going to be great, but they break away from every shot after like 3 secs. WTF?

Maybe not, but I was sure as hell flying high enough to die if a door fell off.

I trained in a 172 and the basics aren't really hard. I soloed after 6 hours. I got my private in Gonzales and the flight back home after that accomplishment was one of the greatest feelings of my life.
