I'm up around the 25hr mark. 3 flights a night weeknights then anything goes on weekends.A health problem is knocking me back at the moment(looks like its permanent)and I've had to give up more than a couple of physical activities. I've upgraded my computer to get FS running to my satisfaction because without it I'd be round the bend.

White on White fly all night.&&&&Red on White you're alright.&&&&Red on Red you'll soon be dead.

I had to defragment last night and got withdrawl symptoms. I am starting an "Around Africa" flight today in a Harrier when I get home from work which will increase my hours a little.

Probably too much! I spend a couple of hours a day doing flights, which would add up to over 20 hours a week. Mind you, there have been times when I've done 5+ hours a day.....!

I spend about 10 hours a week. As you can see from the picture, there are many places to visit. I couldn't resist flying through. (Although I just realized that I never pulled my landing gear up! Shocked

I usually spend about 5 hours a week...now that I have started my RTW flight I suspect that will increase Grin

I would love to spend more time flying but I have a 7 year old that does not see the fun in sitting in front of a screen on Autopilot...he would rather play in the park so i have to keep it balanced... Wink

i dont usually fly to often these days but decided to get back into it today and took one of my harriers out for a spin round the rocky mountains, low level fast flying, and then i decided to follow a road in eastern france for no reason what so ever, i gave up after half an hour and found myself in germany, but it was good fun

During term time I normally get about 5 hours a week done. During holidays I can easily knock off about 8 hours a day without trying!

Is this all stunt flying ??? Roll Eyes
