Welcome back! I'm 52 and getting close to my PPL checkride. Heading out this afternoon for a dual XC out of KIXD.

[@sonoftherepublic9792]

While you were away… turned 63, got off my backside and finished my PPL, working on my instrument rating, signed on to Pilots for Paws and currently shopping for an RG so we can tour the country. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Jigsdr99]

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

I am down in Florida now … I’ll e at vkx in September

[@JulioHernandez-gz5lr]

Congrats on the 1000 hrs. Good to see someone else has a dream similar to mine. At 66, the major hurdle is special issuance (14 months and waiting for an FAA response).

[@peterrao1]

Glad your back Ted! Your are definitely an inspiration!

[@eugeneweaver3199]

👏👏👏 Great to have you back!

[@vegasaviation2243]

Welcome back!! Love your videos

[@daviddefelice6997]

Glad you're back and having fun. The last video of yours that I saw had you moving up into a P210. All you spoke about in this latest video is the Cardinal. Do you still have the P210?

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

Yes ! The 210 is awesome! Have about 100 hours in it now !

[@nathanmiller9711]

Good to see you back!! Congrats on the 1,000 hours! Are you headed to OSH this year?

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

No … not this year … did Oshkosh 2x - … 😎

[@nathanmiller9711]

@@Over50andLearningToFly and you don’t want to go back for more?? 😧

[@sactu1]

TED!!! Glad to see you back Buddy.

[@spiro5327]

Great to see you again but does this mean the 210 has been sold ?? Thanks

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

No the 210 is for mission work and it’s doing great and I fly quite often! -Thanks for watching!

[@hughboyle]

About time Ted! Welcome back and certainly understand the break from social media. Congrats on hitting 1000 hours, great milestone. Good to see the Cardinal too.

[@1dullgeek]

Welcome back! And congrats on 1000 hours! I have a couple of questions for you, that perhaps could be video content. Alternatively, if you held a zoom Q&A, I'd ask these there: 1) You and I own similar airplanes. I have a Piper Cherokee 140 w/an O-320-E2A (150 hp). You seem to fly the pants off of your airplane. What tips do you have for taking a relatively slow airplane on long cross countries? 2) What kind of aviation career options are you talking about? I'm contemplating changing careers into aviation.

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

Well as far as taking slow planes Long cross country it’s kind of what Yogi Berra said, everywhere is walking distance if you got the time. 😇 as far as jobs just start looking at employment at barnstormers or start googling pilot employment and you’ll be surprised what you find out. Thanks for watching!

[@1dullgeek]

@@Over50andLearningToFly Oh! I didn't realize that barnstormers had that. Thanks!

[@midlifeflyingcrisis]

Welcome back Ted!!

[@paulburgess8527]

Great to have you back Ted, but more importantly great you started the mission, and I hope some day to fly with you for that! Glad you took a break for that, it has really encouraged me....solo is soon :). Keep the good content coming whenever you get a moment in the busy schedule. If you are ever in South Florida shoot me a line, I'd love to buy you a not $100 burger.

[@brianparkman8183]

I thought you sold the Cardinal and got a P210. Or am I confusing you with someone else?

[@Over50andLearningToFly]

No I got the 210 as well and that is doing fine!
