recently, my 81 year old grand father bought his own airplane and learned how to fly. his flight instructor was a pilot in the military in WWII, Korea and Vietnam and went on to fly for a major airline. the instructor was also 81 years old at the time he taught my grandfather how to fly. when a fuel tank rank low, the instructor switched fuel tanks as if he were a machine. sometimes old experience can still deliver the goods.
