What is it about flying?

That makes it so much fun to share? Took a good friend from work up for a flight today, just to be-bop around and do some sightseeing.

Here is the track of our flight.

And here are some pictures he snapped along the way:
Total Time: 106.4
Time this flight: 1.8
Landings: 336

I guess it is so much fun because it takes us all back to that first time when we sat in a small aircraft and went for a joyride that later turned into a lifelong pursuit... I find that the most satisfying flights are those when a passenger who's at first slightly apprehensive of flying in a GA aircraft leaves the airplane asking "when do we go again?" Julien.

Michael,

I'm working on another way we can share our experience. Please take a look at http://www.howitflies.com

The site is a kind of Wikipedia for aircraft- articles that anyone can
edit or comment on featuring facts, opinions, photos and videos of
airplanes. Whether someone is gathering information on a plane they would like to fly or buy, or just wants to think about flying on a rainy day, it will be a fun resource.

It hasn't really launched yet, but I'm asking some web savvy pilots such as yourself to come by and give it a try. I would appreciate any comments you might have and feel free to mention it in your blog if you like it.

Thanks,
Keith West
