Amazing! This Cedar Rapids, Iowa TV station did a 2-part piece on
learning to fly -- and did a wonderful job!

The CFI in both segments, Tim Bush, is outstanding. He's a real
pistol, locally, with a zillion ideas for growing GA, and endless
energy to boot.

If only we could get more publicity like this....

I think the six-thousand-dollar part is where a lot of viewers will stop
listening. I can't find Part I but the medical part would also lose a fair
number of viewers.

If it were as difficult to drive as it is to fly, cars would be so rare that
they'd turn heads as they passed (and people would be trying to forbid them to
escape the noise).

Conversely, if it were as easy to fly as it is to drive, the landscape would
be littered with the wreckage of planes and cadavers, but the aircraft would
only cost $15,000 or so, and new models would come out every year, rendering
the old ones obsolete.
