I was flying my rear-end off trying to nab this one by the 1st of the year but it didn't work out that way.

But as of my last landing a couple of hours ago at CYQX, my logbook is sitting officially at 5000.3 flight hours.

Here's the full compliment. As I mentioned in the "800 Landings" thread I just picked up the 750 Hour IFR badge about a week ago.

nicely done. now install the visit/reward series and see how many extra badges you pick up right off the bat.
once you're done that, get back to the office and collect some more. i'm currently working on japan.

Wow. Don't know how long I've flown in the simulator, since I've never bothered to keep my logs between re-formats :P.

Congrats to you on the massive achievement. I am 55 away from picking up 1,000.. Couldn't imagine having 5,000. Hopefully you can relax since you have been working hard to get it.
