Great ideas and a wonderful opportunity to do something I would've never dreamed of doing. I really enjoyed my flight! The instructor was very knowledgable and nice. It was a great experience! The only thing not perfect is I am still waiting on my video of my flight...I paid extra to get that and it's not done yet. Overall, a great time!
