Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation.

Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others.

It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin.

Because I fly

I laugh more than other men

I look up and see more than they,

I know how the clouds feel,

What its like to have the blue in my lap, to look down on birds

To feel freedom in a thing called the stick…

Who but I can slice between God's Billowed legs,

and feel the laugh and crash of his step

Who else has seen the unlimbed peaks?

The rainbows secret?

The real reason birds sing?

Because I fly,

I envy no man on earth.

Well this might be consider cheating since it's what i do for a living but I did have to lear to fly in the past haha. 

I actually flew my first airplane over ten years ago but these are recent photos

I was 13!

I got my glider's pilote lience in the fall of 2004.  I attended Gimli Glider Scholarship with Air Cadets and practiced flying out of the Yorkton Glider club for 3 years.  I was certified to fly passengers.

Flying has always been my biggest dream. I learned to fly a plane in Okinawa Japan in 2002. I have been hooked every since. 

Definitely something to experience once in your life! So rewarding!

I did have one flyig lesson and flew the plane myself over bandon and kinsale harbour :). Was just a gift from a friend :)

 I have flown a plane already in the air but want to learn how to take off and land

Ventura Flight

flew solo in a Cessna 172 in Virginia

Only had one lesson and found it a bit boring but worth it for the experience.  

Well wouldn't say I can fly a plane, but I had one lesson over the Skys of Melbourne- August 2013 :-)

It was a pleasure to have flown with the best here and experience the culture. Whether I make it or break it in the end, I would never forget my experience here, nor will I ever forget the taste of flying in the clear blue skies.

P.S. Flying in the sky at 12,000 ft and looking down at the ground is really not as bad and scary as if you stand on top of a 12,000 ft tower and look down, I swear! It's quite pleasant and beautiful, on the contrary. 

Simple, get a pilots license. c",)

Flew a plane out of bristol airport, was epic.

North Vernon, Indiana
