Lindsey Megan said… - Hello George! Wow, what an amazing list of flying experiences! I would LOVE to learn sky-diving solo and my boyfriend and I have hang gliding on our bucket list! I am just starting with schooling, but not sure where I will end up going permanently as I will be moving to Colombia in the fall. During the summer months I will be traveling nonstop as well, so its all "in the air" at the moment! I really want to get my pilots license as soon as possible, however!
