RE: Self taught flying - My diary / progress
I know you don't want to hear this... a good friend, and NOW A CLUB MEMBER told me yesterday out of the blue; he wishes that he had never gone the renegade route. He spent years running around from ball diamond to ball diamond to fly. He knows the location of every ball field in the area. He got caught several times by the park police and risked getting fined. The biggest thing he said he now enjoys is the (most of) other members. He is a great guy and offers a lot and has learned a lot from us. He regrets every year he spent running around hiding just to fly. Now that is a guy with passion for flight.
I never knew that before... it took a while, but he saw the light.
