Interesting stat Jay. I think you would have to qualify that as people "piloting an aircraft" versus people "flying." Anyone with $70 that does not have a paralyzing fear of flying can "fly." Good point, although that would be akin to counting bus riders as "drivers". -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" Skydivers say, "If riding in a plane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming". Skydiving is probably more akin to "falling" though.... BTW, lighter than air flight was achieved in the 18th century I believe... --Dan
