A chance to give something back

Great post Jack. Times like that really make you realize how lucky we are
and that all the hard work and money spent really was worth it.

Yesterday I was doing a little house cleaning around my desk and I pulled
out a book that I haven't read in ages, Howard Fried's "Beyond the
Checkride". I skimmed through it and found the section on "What Now?" about
what you can do after you get your certificate. It's full of short
descriptions of different organizations that pilots can volunteer for and
other things that pilots can do to spread the joy of flying to others. I
highly recommend it to those who have recently joined the ranks and are
somewhat at a stand still as to "What Now?". We all love to fly, help
spread that joy to others.

Jack's story should inspire all of us to figure out What Now? and take the
next step.
