Do you like flying?

I like flying in big planes and mid size planes. I did fly in a glider too. Glider flying is THE experience when you like flying and it made me feel free and frightened the same time. When I was on the ground again I talked to a jet pilot sitting there who patted my shoulder trying to calm me down since I still was a bit in panic mode. He said that he as a fighter jet pilot considers glider flying the ultimate! He said that he loves glider flying so much he would give up his job when he would get paid for glider flying. So it depends a lot. My legs turned into puddings while glider flying. And we didn't do stunts like artistic flight. So gliders: rather not, other planes:rather yes.
