matw,

That's awesome! I started flying when I was 16 and I remember that being in the airplane alone (once I started flying solo), I always felt so much freedom. As long as I had fuel, I was free to roam the skies; no cops to pull me over for speeding. That was such a great feeling. I was Jonathan Livingston Seagull.
