Default Attracting the kids


Guys,

I live in the Northeast US. To do my personal training at a location
that far away, I would need a commercial type operation where I could
do an intensive course. If you know of any that do that, please post
specific names.

The land required is the biggest problem here in the east. Land is
too expensive and too crowded to get a 5000ft piece of land bought and
turned into an airport. Unless you are a long drive from any large
population centers.


I do believe that for soaring to grow, it needs to be more exciting
(for the newbie) and cheaper.
