I still do, but I used to, too.
:D
I want to see more people take to the skies in 1.7 . Join channel 1st Airborne to meet & talk to pilots for tips and help with flying, learning to fly, fittings and the like.
come on December 10th!

Although, i wouldn't count on 1.7 as being a truly innovative update for dropships considering that they haven't really had a good/decent HP buff when compared to the fact that forge guns have still gone without a single nerf. Officer forge guns will still 1 shot proto logi and proto assault dropships, more than likely.
Condor Squad is still there alright, but there's been a bit of a move-over to 1st Airborne, notably because of Judge Rhadamanthus' videos, really. He's a well-experienced pilot that has made cracking videos related to dropships. Most of us experienced vets have moved over.

I despise the "auto level" training wheels CCP installed last patch, both because it removes any skill required to hover and because it screws with my ability to fly smoothly. It's always lifting the damn nose when I want a tilt to move forward.
I loved flying and tried to make it work for months but I finally lost faith. I had no idea that they implemented an auto leveling function already for dropships, and it sounds annoying if it's not triggered by a button but instead tries to fight with the pilot about what the computer wants to ship to do and what the pilot ACTUALLY wants the ship to do. Maybe it will get some tweaking in 1.7 or something, all i can say is i look forward to the new camera at least. Yes, you have to fight the auto leveler at all times. Let go of the stick and it levels off. I thought that Wolfman would correct the mistakes of Blam, but it continues to get worse regardless of who is at the helm. Instead of devoting time and energy toward making piloting a skilled occupation with a valuable support role they continue to remove player skill requirements and concentrate on DPS.
They're only on Militia dropships to prevent noob pilots from crashing as much. Skill into a standard.
