I believe there is one variable missing in this picture.

How many miles did you clock in Taxi cabs and rental cars? And why aren't you renting fun cars then?

I live in my parents house, but I work and finally made enough money to get myself a decent computer.

Hopefully I don't become a 21 year old college drop out (since I am currently out of school), but I do have the latest version of Dungeon Keeper 2 to keep me happy.

Anyways, working in airplanes must be awesome, hopefully some day I might be able to join the mile high club.

Dave,

My car came equipped with instrumentation to measure miles travelled, but alas it did not come with instrumentation of hours spent in it. But the math is fairly straightforward. A commercial jet travels around an order of magnitude faster than my car, so it's still a ratio of 30 / 100. Since it's city driving for a good portion of it, perhaps even as much as 60 / 100. Whatever it is, it's not enough.

I don't know about jumbo jets, but a Cessna 172 is, indeed, more fun to drive than my Mini. But my Mini gets better gas mileage. :-) Sadly, the good folks at American and United have yet to hand me the keys, or even let me ride shutgun.

How does the graph compare in terms of hours though?

And how many of those airplane miles were spent in the driver's seat? If you think a Mini Cooper is a blast to drive, try a jumbo jet.
