Why Fly?

Let me tell you why I’m a cheerleader for flying.

When I’m up in the sky, I see wide open. Nearly boundless freedom, 
vertically and on the horizon.

Shapeless infinity, undefined, a clean slate filling our imaginations
with the possibilities of the unknown. So many hues of blue.
You can’t know all the colors. 

And then, there’s the world below. It’s never looked so clear.
Peeking down at houses, busy roads, busy people, living together on one big globe.

The wind itself becomes a playmate. I wrestle. I kick against.
A gust on landing when I am slow and easy? I’ll kick back. I’ll bite.
I’ll make it right way again.

I play in the thermals like a bird, letting the air mass have its way with me.
The wind under and over my wings pushing me around.
I go with the flow or I fight against. Pushing the prop to win.

The sky is my home.
Every price I paid to get here was worth it.

It’s amazing to be here. The journey to reach it was mind-blowing fun and even sometimes excruciatingly hard. 

The challenge makes it fun.

Overpowering fears to be set free into the land of infinite possibilities – the sky. 

This
is why I fly.

 It's awesome to be a pilot!
