For all of recorded human history, man has looked to the skies with a yearning which only recently has been satisfied. With a mixture of envy and curiosity, people would watch the flight of birds, longing to unlock their secrets and emulate their abilities. From Daedalus and Icarus to Peter Pan, the desire for flight has long been evident in mythology and fantasy.

From the first feeble flight of the Wright brothers, the world of aviation has evolved into a wonderfully rich and diverse culture. Spanning a wide range of interests and subcultures, the world of general aviation offers many different avenues through which to experience the dream of flight.

“For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.” - Leonardo Da Vinci
