    Tuesday, weather permitting I am scheduled to take the test to be a pilot. I wouldn't be too worried, I make a lot more errors coding than flying :p

    Good luck. I was way over-prepared for that test. And my examiner was very nice. I'm sure you'll do just fine. :)

        I live a life free from stress so I really don't need it. Sure it would be nice to eventually be a commercial rated pilot so I could have a fun second career that pays even less than programming but at least leads to better stories.

                                        Stole it from Chuck Yeager. He was always bumming sticks of gum (Beemans) off people before a test flight, and the day he broke the sound barrier, he had broken ribs and couldn't close the cockpit door without using a broom stick handle. That's how it was portrayed on the movie the Right Stuff, anyway.
