Geez, at a failing mall, next to the 2 story xmas tree sat a small private plane. Unlike the normal random vehicles they abandon in malls in an attempt to get you to find a dealer, there was a guy there handing out brochures trying real hard to get the average joe to buy one. Considering how much many people here spend on brand new cars, constantly making payments and such, never getting ahead, it makes sense, but not for us. Plus you have to pay for schooling and need a set amount of flight time hours... ...then the cost of special fuel, where are you going to land, and what not. If I got one, it would be one that could land in water.
I remember growing up... ...my mom kept telling me that by the time I was 18, we'd all be flying jets. At age 6, I already knew which one I wanted: (yes I know it doesnt land on water, or shouldnt anyway)
