It's the zoo.

Interesting story about the storm, it says the flames were blowing horizontal. That must have been something to see. Too bad that at least hangar wasn't saved.

I found a place that gives one hour flying instructions of Cessna's (I believe), including log book time, for $100. Sounds like fun!

Have you taken an introductory flight first? Usually $30 to $50. There's going to be a lot of Ground School, and they still charge you for that, although it is much cheaper than renting a wet plane.

A lot of times, joining a flying club is a cheaper way to go.

This is the introductory flight, it's probably that my state is way more expensive than most others. Not joking.

I will look into a flying club BUT I am a starving college student, too. haha It's why a one time introductory flight could suffice for now.

Thanks for pointing me to a club, maybe I could at least belong to it for free.

Well, plan on spending at least 4 to 5 thousand dollars by the time you get that ticket. This is not a po' boy's hobby.

These days, in some places, it can run as high as $9,000.oo.

Ouch!

Hopefully my career will pay for it one day.

You kind of get used to the $100 hamburger after awhile.

Maybe for retired folk like you, but $100 is about 10 hours of slave labor at my job. lol

the parking lot of the zoo, which it also is more then just the zoo, the rr museum is part of that old base and a few other buildings. the part about the cia there and also the radar etc is when I went there the first time. I remember that stuff.

Like most everything else in life, it often boils down to a matter of priorities.

True!

I have to make college a priority at the moment as I know flying would be just a hobby for me.
