I’ve begun to tackle the subject of flight instruction on my site AeroGo, so if any of you out there have always toyed with the idea of learning to fly, you might want to see this post and then check back every once in a while.

Better yet, get a Xanga account and then subscribe, and you can get an email alert every time AeroGo is updated.

In this first post, I discuss some of the basic issues involved in choosing among the many schools and flying clubs, etc. that offer flying lessons.

I also note how options are expanding and costs likely heading down as a result of the new sport pilot/light sport aircraft rules, and there’s a number of helpful links for more info on these changes, as well as sites that can help you locate a flight instructor or flying club.
