True, but the things that impel me to fly can largely be satisfied
with the boat. I have ambitious long range plans for it and, much as
I'll miss flying, the focus of energy and money will make it more
likely that those plans will come to fruition.

Also, the difference between an ultralight and the plane I was flying
is like the difference between a dinghy and a cruising boat. A dinghy
is fun in its own right but would never be a substitute for having to
give up taking a boat you can sleep on out beyond the edge of what you
can see from your dock.

Roger,,, what about an ultralight? I think I read that they are
unregulated. And, when you crash one you dead, so no worry.

I decided today that I can no longer continue flying in the absurd
insurance environment of today. I've resigned from my flying club
and will be turning in the keys to the plane tomorrow. I feel like
someone died but it does mean that my full energies can now go to
the boat and getting it ready for that trip to Newfoundland and
Labrador in a couple years.

Down to just one mistress.
