That's not a very welcoming attitude to have. For whatever reasons,
there are a lot of people who don't have a lot of extra cash. Some
just don't make as much money as they'd like; others make plenty but
have bills to pay. Regardless, the guy didn't come online trying to
find out how to buy a Cirrus. He came truly asking about getting into
the air with the resources that are available. If he truly wants to
fly, he can look for a way to make it happen.

It's saddening to see such elitism creep into what, for the most part,
is a very friendly community. Maybe he'd make a better "pilot" buying
a $200,000 dollar airplane and leaving it in a hangar for years at a
time.

Whatever, I believe like you. If you have to ask how much gas a boat burns,
you can't afford the boat. A lot of truth holds over to airplanes, and
flying.
