I figure it costs me at least $10 in gas every time I drive to the airport -- and I have a hybrid car. I am beginning to wonder how long some of the younger instructors can keep this up. You live 60+ miles from the airport? You just need to move closer to the airport!! Matt As the crow flies, it is only about 15 miles. But the road is really, really crooked. Hey, the house is free. It is in the woods, on the beach, with its own creek. I can walk out my front door and pick all the oysters and clams I want. Seals and whales play out in front, and eagles nest in my yard. Sure, it is ten miles to the nearest town. But there are compensations. OTOH, I notice that bears have been clawing up some of the trees in the back yard... Sounds like one nice place. Maybe a helicopter. -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |
