Got my ticket... now what?
I don't know about you, but for me, the best part about flying is going to new places. There's something very unique about flying to someplace new, dropping out of the sky and plopping down. You get a different feeling about a place when you arrive there by plane - even if it's a place you have been to before, That's what I loved about skiing in Europe, and ski-touring in this hemisphere. The greatest hoot was taking the bus from Chamonix to Cervinia in Italy, then skiing over the hump to Zermatt. When we took the train down out of Zermatt, I wondered how many people had ever taken it outbound (downbound?) on their first trip. Flying is a bit like that. Especially when the folks on the other end make a big deal about it. In the Cub, that does happen from time to time. You needn't go far to feel like one of the great explorers. all the best -- Dan Ford email: www.danford.net/letters.htm#9 see the Warbird's Forum at http://www.danford.net/index.htm Vietnam | Flying Tigers | Pacific War | Brewster Buffalo | Piper Cub |
