Almost everyone has dreamed of flight. It’s one of man’s most fundamental desires. The world took a huge leap toward that dream over the past century when the invention and subsequent development of flight advanced by leaps and bounds. Today, flying to different destinations is a common thing.

One more thing that has gotten more common is flight school. Every year, the number of people who are obtaining flight licenses are increasing. After all, there is an exhilaration to be had, one that rivals the excitement of racing a car on a track or riding a rollercoaster.

People who have obtained the license to fly light aircraft have said it to be the adventure of their lives, and not for the faint-hearted. While technology has made flying a plane easier and safer, it still takes a lot of courage to get off that runway and cruise at 30,000 feet or higher.

Other people have decided that life on the road just isn’t for them. Whether it’s their distaste for traffic or driving cars has just gotten boring, flying has become the more appealing alternative. It’s faster, and it gets them to where they want to go.

And along with the sense of adventure learning to fly brings to one’s life, there’s also the fact that it’s an entirely new skill set that one can be very proud of.

Flying indeed may become the hobby of the future.
