I boxed a little
Just sparing by your self with 16oz gloves on not hitting or getting hit for 1 minute is tuff!
Much less getting hit.
I knew I was never a contender and learned to live with that .

A professor is sent to darkest Africa to live with a primitive tribe. He spends years with them, teaching them reading, writing, math and science.
One day the wife of the tribe's chief gives birth to a white child. The tribe is shocked, and the chief pulls the professor aside and says, "Look here! You're the only white man we've ever seen and this woman gives birth to a white child. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened!"
The professor replied, "No, Chief. You're mistaken. What you have here is a natural occurrence, what we in the civilized world call an albino! Look at that field over there. All of the sheep are white except for one black one. Nature does this on occasion."
The chief was silent for a moment, then said, "Tell you what. You don't say anything more about that sheep and I won't say anything more about that white child.

Evening folks.
Fire burning in the fireplace. The boy is screaming. Wife is yelling. Life is good lol
Found out my friend that lost his job is moving to another branch in the company. I hate it cuz he is a great guy. Marine Corp, corn fed country boy. And he was teaching me to fly.
Not only losing his friendship, I’ll have to pay about 13k to finish my pilots license now since he is moving.
Ups and downs. Such is life

whats it cost to get your pilots lic?
sucks losing a good guy
It’s about 8-15k. But I have my own plane so that cuts some cost. Rental is about $125 an hr. I’d guess about 12k or so with a paid instructor.
We had a deal worked out for him to us my plane to finish his training. Then train me for free. Would help us both save a lot of $$$. Plans change. Time moves all things around

If i was a pilot and I flew to Mass .for a 2 hour flight can you stay for 2 days and fly back?
I’m not sure I understand? I can fly now, just not legally. My main issue is I don’t know all the Maneuvers. And the book learning is still about 25% at this point. I fly a few times a week but I can’t log those hours for training since my friend isn’t a certified instructor yet.

Sorry ,If I rent a plane for a trip thats 4 hours combined could I go somewhere and play for a few days and fly home .
Is it a daily rate if no hours are flown that day?
My older sister taught me to box.
I paid $400 in 1968 for enough training and hours to get my single engine land license. A 150 wet was $19.00 hr.
