EAA Chapter 892
I Want To Be A Pilot
I want to be a pilot when I grow up because it's a fun job and easy to do.  That's why there are so many pilots flying today.  Pilots don't need much school, they just have to learn numbers so they can read instruments. I guess they should be able to read road maps so they can find their way if they are lost.  Pilots should be brave so they won't be scared if it's foggy and they can't see, or if a wing or motor falls off they should stay calm so they'll know what to do. Pilots have to have good eyes to see through clouds and they can't be afraid of lightning or thunder because they're closer to them than we are. The salary pilots make is another thing I like.  They make more than they can spend.  This is because most people think plane flying is dangerous except pilots because they know how easy it is. There isn't much I don't like, except girls like pilots and all the stewardesses want to marry pilots so they always have to chase them away so they don't bother them. I hope I don't get air sick because I get car sick and if I get air sick I couldn't be a pilot and then I'd have to go to work.
