right? Think again:

Check out the flight requirements on the bottom. The requirements to carry a concealed firearm
aren't nearly as tough!
To someone just starting out that seems like a lot, but once you get comfortable it's really not that bad. There's a steep learning curve early, then it gets easier.
Sounds like they are a busy, crowded club, and don't want any newbies slowing up the flight line.
I think I'll spend some time with the folks at the local middle school. They've got a nice big lot
behind the school, and folks are usually there on Sat and Sun.
