I’m ready to fly in one. It isn’t the flying that is of any concern.

We have a national guard base to our northwest, and I am always seeing/hearing various aircraft overhead. Blackhawks, Chinooks (my favorite!) and every once and again, a few V-22 Ospreys. Not electric, but still neat to see flying.

I hope the price will come down to my range eventually. (Or, you know, I could just get up into its price range.)
