Generally flying a simple aircraft is easier than driving a car when conditions are good. The take off is far easier in a nose wheel plane, a tail dragger takes a bit more skill and judgement. Landing is a totally different story. I had a private pilots unrestricted licence with aerobatic endorsement. Flying became to expensive to maintain once I was married. Still miss it.

I would have given my eye teeth to have flown one of those Tigers on that trip.
