My college nightmare was that it was time to graduate and I was short a required course. This went off and on for about 10 years before it went away.

I had a dream when I left on my last cruise in the Navy that I?d brought my airplane along. I went down to the hangar deck and it was next to all the Hornets and Hawkeyes with the maintainers were slapping splotchy grey paint and RTV all over it for ?corrosion prevention?. It was pretty vivid, and woke me up in the middle of the night!

Yep, I have had the same power line dreams several times. Now I find myself when awake just dreaming about building an RV 14!

Funny you should mention that...as a grad student with a TA, I taught College Algebra, a *required* course for graduation regardless of major. And yes, I had students come in after the final, who didn't pass the class *as 2nd semester seniors* who were expecting to graduate ("But I already told my family and sent out all the announcements and..."). Why they didn't get this class out of the way early, I have no idea. Some I could help, some I couldn't and they didn't graduate that semester. Must have been a shock

Not really a nightmare but I straight up had a dream last night that Vans was sending me a C-130 quick build kit for $390K. In this incredibly detailed dream my only concerns seemed to be that the annual would be expensive and the hangar was $850 per month. The demo C-130 had a Garmin G3X panel as I was doing transition training with Mike Seagar who looked an awful lot like my local CFII. I have no particular desire to have a C-130, no idea where this came from.

I thought everybody did! I have for years!

I too have had the dream about the power lines.

The other one that I have is where I am flying like Superman through a narrow hallway at the top of the ceiling having to fly underneath pipes and through door frames. Anyone else have that one?

You know the funniest part of this? That it was a C-130 *quick build*.

Check out the crow hop over the curb and the dive to gain flying speed... just barely enough flying speed.

This dream came up in conversation today and I realized I HAVE NOT had it since reading this thread all those years ago??? Not sure why knowing all you crazies out there like me have this dream stopped me from having it. Here?s to hoping I didn?t jinx it as it often ruined a nights sleep.

Thank you Ben! I too haven?t had the wire dream since I first brought it up in this thread nearly six years ago. I don?t recall having any flying dreams since I retired and moved onto an airport (3-1/2 years ago), and my hangar is just on the other side of the wall from my bed. I guess that if you?re ?living the dream? you don?t actually have to dream about it.

My most recurrent dream (nightmare?) now is that I?m back at work and thinking, ?I retired once; I don?t have to put up with this $#!+ anymore!?

Strange-I too have the dream where I have taken off and am looking for a break in the power lines to climb out. Some times I get the hole, most of the time not. Weird!
