A local flying information web page at webpages.cwia.com
answers a lot and San Diego Online also has its own aviation section
at www.sandiego-online.com
American Flyers is at www.americanflyers.net.
Only
you can decide whether to take time from your work to learn to fly
in one swoop -- or, as most do, fly a little each weekend over a
year's time. One fact that you can't control is weather. Expect
to spend some time on the ground even when you live in a southern
state. Learn to accept this frustrating situation. If patience is
not your virtue, you're in the wrong pastime.
But
you've picked the perfect one if you want to see things from a different,
exciting perspective like sneaking in sideways to see Mt. Rushmore
or sliding in slowly to view Niagara Falls from the brink. This
is what private flying is all about: Looking down on Monument Valley
or floating like an angel over Maui's House of the Sun. And when
you soar over the Biblical lands of Zion and Bryce, you'll be forgiven
the conceit that maybe you've joined the company of the gods.
