Learn how to fly.

Edit More info for you.

Way back in the day when I was in the Civil Air Patrol (Auxillary of the United States Air Force). Part of our education was Aerospace. Now you all know numbers and Amy don't mix. But my contempt for my married-in-cousin [a fuck up at life] was so deep (another cadet at the time that the male senoir member [read leader/mentor] paid more attention too), competitive-young-mind-so-strong and with some impressive will power - I understood these concepts AND could teach them to other cadets.

So, only having been on one (trying to think of what we called them) ... ... Orientation flight. (sounds right, come to think of it possibly two) The little puff of wind that could have been gods' breath pushed that tiny plane up into the air. I was hooked. If it wasn't for all the window dressing security pain-in-the-ass measures, I WOULD fly more. But there was also something about CONTROLING that plane that made it all the more awesome.

I'd like to think that I would have a biplane and would have to wear googles. I've been to a lot of airshows and would love to barnstorm.
* sigh *

But for srs, I can do it at Martin State Airport through CCBC. I only wish I knew if 2012 was going to happen. I would take out all the student loans I could muster and learn how to fly.
