Greeley is actually beautiful from 7000 feet.

I took my very first flying lesson in a Cessna 172 today with instructor Craig Kozak. He was extremely friendly and made me as comfortable as possible. The controls were a little bit of work to learn at first, but there was a certain level of intuitiveness to them once things got rolling that I was not expecting. I just thought I would post that I had, and if you want to hear the story in more detail just let me know. I'm sure the effect is greater if you see the big grin on my face while I tell the story than if you just read it. If you live in Greeley or nearby, you should definitely check out Poudre Aviation to learn to fly or just go on a scenic flight.
