That's a good one! (I've been meaning to ask - what is the significance of your user name? I noticed there's "fly" in it!)

Take a look at this post:

I've always wanted to fly.  I took a job a McDonnell Douglas - which became Boeing.  I've always enjoyed airshows and jets.  So, I combined FLY with my initials - DDW.

Wow, that is cool! My dad is the same way, and has always loved flying - he flies mostly Cessnas too, and has taken me up a few times & let me try... It's really fun!

Flying is easy - it's the cost that stops most people.  One can buy a good used plane for about the cost of Chevy Tahoe.  But, the problem is the gas - as high as $6.79 a gallon.  Then insurance. Then maintenance.  Then some place to store it.

That's what eats someone's lunch!

But it SURE is fun!!!
