Somehow I completely missed this. Sorry about that! Insofar as milestone flights, I actually wrote an entire trip report (a short one) about the process. Rather than list mine, it might be easier to simple link you to the report. You'll find it right HERE.

Last month I flew my 1,000th recorded flight. I started keeping records in April of 2002 (beginning what I call the Frequent Flyer Era (FFE).
Flight 1,000: August 29 US Dash-8-100 PHL-SWF. It was also a New Route/New Airport (SWF) so that was at least something! |

Sometimes I wish that I had kept a log of all my flights in my life, but I've flown so much as a kid that this would simply be impossible. I could start now, but then I'd wonder about all the flights I had forgotten to write down. Or I could do the work to remember them.
Or I could just not care & enjoy my future flights anyways without worrying about writing them down! :) |
