Default Learning to sail the USA way.

I rather take over cold turkey then deal with the guy for years. It is
a big commitment of time, but well worth the effort. I have taught
motorboat handling skills to the Sea Scouts here but just as a guest
instructor.

I was maybe 11 when in the CAP. It was fun, learned navigation, rock
climbing, repelling, ect..ect...We had a cessna but I moved on before I
was allowed to even think about getting in the plane. Thats OK my dad
was a pilot and we flew most weekends. I think most programs like CAP,
SeaScouts, BSA, GSA, Junior Achivement, ect are all great programs that
can make all the difference in a kids life.

So you got a ride on the vomit comet huh?

Hit 3.5 negative G's and 4.5 positive in a loop.
Barrel Roll, Aileron Roll, Immelmann.

It was great fun cutting a piece out of a cloud.

I've watched fighters refuel flying over the Pacific,
sat on the flight deck behind and above the pilot
while flying over the Grand Canyon to name a
few other modest things I've done as an observer.
