Default For you pilots...

Growing up, I never had much interest in becoming a pilot, but watching clips like this seems so cool....

I've always wanted to be a pilot in the USAF, but they'd never let me with my eye sight.

Go to your local airpark and take the $50 introductory flight with a CFI. They'll let you sit the left seat and take the controls. I guarantee you'll want to do again, and again. I learned to fly at 45 and was upset that I waited so long.
