Flying an airplane is not just for military pilots and the very wealthy - you too can obtain a pilot's license, relatively inexpensively. Once you have a license, you don't need to buy an airplane to fly; you can rent!
If you are as fascinated by flight as we are, why not consider getting a pilot's license (or as it's officially called in the US, an Airman Certificate)? Here is some more information on obtaining your own pilot's license. We are also planning to have a flight school directory up and running shortly. Enjoy, and happy flying.
