How much flight experience?

[Boss_BlueAngels]

There are a surprising number of pilots in this forum, and was just curious, what's everyones experience?  What have you flown, how many hours, and how long have you been flying?

I started flying at 13 (almost 9 years ago) and got my license in 2002, am working on my instrument rating (again)  and have 160 hours.  I've flown a Piper Cub, Cessna Caravan, Schweizer 300 helicopter, Warriors, and Cessna 150/152/172.  

So, lets hear it from everyone else!

Cessna 172 for about 10-15 minutes when I was 10 or 11 years old. It was part of the young eagles program. Very soon I will start taking flying lessons in a 172. Im waiting untill the spring time windy-ness dies down before I start.

Had my first flight when I was 16 with my aerospace class.  I started taking lessons the next April (2003) when I was 17 and got my license in November of 2003.  Total time is 70-80 66.5 hours in a C172.  I also had around an hour in a Piper Archer for the aerospace class and I got to ride in a C172RG on a ferry flight from Chicago to Madison.


EDIT:  Oops, miscalculated, just checked my log book and I'm at 66.5 hours.  Thought it was more.

Somewhere in the region of 115 loggable hours since I started in 1999, in the C152, Grob 115e, Shorts Tucano and Harvard. Should add another 100-120 by then end of March 2006. Add all my other "non loggable" stick time whilst officially a pax, and that probably adds another 15hrs or so, including a fair bit of instrument time.

[edit: and still don't have license, and probably still won't this time next year, although if I find the time I may try to finish the PPL on a Cub during my summer leave...]

Posted these stats awhile ago, but what the hell- it represents quite an achievement for me, so I'm happy to repeat it.
PPSEL non-instrument (inactive last few years but vowing to get back up this summer and start on IFR training); trained at TEB and N07, passed my checkride  at TEB. Here's the breakdown:
172.1 hrs total; about half dual and half PIC/solo.
65 hrs x-country,
3 hrs. simulated IFR,
 3.4 hrs. night.
Mostly C172s and 150/152s, but memorable exceptions include: first demo flight, in a Tomahawk (not in my logbook for some reason...), about 5 minutes' worth of stick time in a J3 on a sightseeing flight, and an unforgettable 1-hr aerobatic lesson in a Zlin 242.

10 minutes in a Vans RV-6A for the Young Eagles thing. Fun stuff...

As my sig says, 19.9 hours in a 172.  Getting ready to solo right now.

The spring time windyness?  You should try the winter time windyness.  The X-country I flew w/moderate turbulence and wind shears at 4,500 ft, and then a 25 knot direct crosswind on landing at the other airport was a fairly memorable one (we flew SIDEWAYS in the pattern)

~70 hours with my PPL flying Warrior III's.  I have unlogged time in 172's and a Rutan Long-Eze (similar to the vari-eze)
