Smoething that I jumped out of the day I got my matric results. Me and my mates went for a static line jump on that particular day, was our present to ourselves for passing I just remember hanging onto the wing strut and waiting for the instructor to let me go

Many of my flights were either as skydives or in the line of my job - journos get to fly too!
Forgot:
Let (not sure what type)

Also can't remember the specific of the airliners like the Boeings and Airbusses, but of the more exciting other than microlights was an alouette, herculees C130 where I sat in the cockpit while pilot practiced touch and goes (felt though), and an Cessna Citation (looks like a learjet) a few times doing medevacs into Afreka.

The one interesting aircraft apart from the usual Airbus, Boeing, MD, De-Havilland, Fokker, etc. used by airlines around the world was the Russian Mi-8 helicopter that transported the Pope on his visit in Hungary in 1991. The 'throne' was still in the aircraft and the Holy Spirit kept it in the air. (Just about - there was a fair bit of thermal activity on the day I flew and it was like a roller-coaser ride.)

Also flew in Tu-134 and Tu-154 passenger liners back in the 1980's, courtesy of Aeroflot and Malev Hungarian Airlines as self loading cargo ... For some reason the cabin always reeked of jet-fuel and Aeroflot's attempts to create a breathable atmosphere by releasing copious amounts of locally made perfumes resulted in lots of white/green faces ...

Oh, and crawled through the Shackleton, but only on the ground while in the hangar at Ysterplaat. Would love to be on board in flight, though.

Wow, I'm in awe of what I see here!!

Wooooooooooow again!!!

You guys have stunned me, I will immediately start working on improving my short list!!!
