Golf legend Palmer to pilot his last flight
Long before Arnold Palmer piloted his first aircraft, in 1956, he was aware of the Newtonian law, "What goes up must come down." On Jan. 31, the rule will have slightly sadder, more literal implications. When Palmer, 81, pilots his Cessna Citation 10 jet from Palm Springs to Orlando that morning, it will be his last flight as pilot. His license expires that day, and Palmer has elected not to have it renewed. (www.golfdigest.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Thank you Arnie,and Happy Birthday! Glad to see a pro/pilot knows when its time to sit in back!!
You never have to renew a pilots license...it does NOT expire.
So, I guess they meant to say that his physical expired?
...or possibly he's in need of a bi-annual flight review. Either way, I say kudos to Arnold Palmer for knowing when enough is enough. I know many people who choose to continue, many by ulterior methods, when they shouldn't be. I think this sets a great example that many can follow.
Keep his plane, emissions and jet noise - ass - away from us.
Easy Gene...Arnie is a pure class act.
