I always tell people that I wasted the first 35 years of my life on the
ground, gazing skyward. (I learned to fly at age 35...)


Wow Jay, I didn't know you just started (relatively speaking).


Well, I'm 46 now, Bryan -- so I guess I don't feel like I "just started"
flying...

But I do envy your 22 years in the air. I wanted to start at age 17,
believe me, but I just didn't know how....

Which is why I feel it is our duty to help the next generation avoid the
mistakes I made. How many folks like me NEVER got off the ground, simply
because they NEVER figured out the fact that they could do it?
