Civillian Flying. As a PAX 
I like that. Thull, you are a good man.
Hung over? Hell, I make it a point to never board a comair flight without a healthy buzz going. That's why they serve cocktails at the airport.

It's the ONLY way to travel. It doesn't matter what time it is either... noon, 4pm, 6am...

Thats why I hate the early morning flights.

Is that to keep your mind off of the impending crash? We can't forget that tons of riddle grads fly those little RJ's, be afraid.
Seriously, I still get nervous flying single engine GA aircraft. I know that its only a matter of time before I have a complete engine failure and have to make an emergency landing and I've been flying for 20+ years now.
That said I love flying small GA aircraft. I just did a bunch of T&Gs at dusk the other day. Had a blast, every landing was a greaser, really felt at one with the plane. I haven't found any other activity that gives me that feeling. Cars, motorcycles, etc just aren't the same. I think the element of over coming danger is needed to make it fullfilling.
Nerves are good. I had a Skipper say the most dangerous pilot is one who has no apparent fear of death. Its like performers (singers and such) say: if they aren't nervous before going on stage then there is something wrong.
Life is about confronting and conquering fears.

You know what they say . . . one perfect landing is skill, two in a row is luck and skill. Three in a row and someone's fibbing!
Just kidding, welcome aboard.

This...is...Caketown!
Geez, just drink a few Guinesses (Guini?) before flying, you'll be fine. And yeah, control issues? 
Hehe.
Maybe someone in the know can answer this better than I can, but is being a control freak an asset when flying? Maybe he's good to go...as long as he's got the stick.

ENJOY IT!
Relax. The most dangerous part of flying, is driving to the airport.

You obviously forgot which forum you were posting to. This is the Naval Aviation forum, not the Air Force forum.
BTW, I've never had a bad landing...walked away from everyone of them!!:icon_wink
