Possible to live in Manhattan and keep soaring?

One more option:

When I was living on the Upper West Side, I would hop on a commercial
flight and head to the southwest - I kept my glider in El Paso. The
commute wasn't too difficult, but I only got to fly on one or two
weekends a month. Eventually I just moved to El Paso.

Granted, this option isn't realistic for most, but some companies have
commuting options available for their workers. It's worth an inquiry,
at the very least. Remember, it's guaranteed that it won't work if
you never ask!
