My wife and I are both Private Pilots and own a Cessna 172 Skyhawk. Seems like flying, motorcycling and Corvettes all go together! Here's mine. Mike

Sometimes its not so much fun as a job, but it can be very rewarding to get that first license out of the way. If you can put aside at least two to three days a week of studying and taking lessons, in a matter of a month you could have that first one done and over with.
Good Luck
