I'm 21, as Hagar said you'll find a whole range of ages...some real pilots and others not, with the one common love for flight among all of them.  I myself am not a certified pilot, I am currently a student working towards a Bachlor's Degree and down the road I hope to have a ppl someday.

First of all please don't by the poll a lot guys in the ages above 50 may be thinking this jack ass wants a poll
an age and may be all do not want to reveal their ages. Rember (Ladies Rules) you never ask a lady her age otherwise you are in big trouble.
Therefore never ask a simav guy his age you may get a wonky reply ;) As all aircraft are "She". :)

I am a 38 year old teenager. Growning old is compulsary, growing up is optional.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Almost 48 here...

Intersting so far. The two age groups with the most are: The age when a person "can" become a pilot... and the age when a person can "normaly" afford to become a pilot..   :)
