I'm currently planning a relocation from Hawaii to the mainland for the purpose of pursuing my dream of an aviation career. I would like to solicit opinions from both Flying's writers and others regarding what western states and/or communities are the most General Aviation-friendly/supportive. Please include your reasons for your opinion and reply either in the forum or to my e-mail address: dbear156@hotmail.com I can tell you that Hawaii is not particularly supportive of its GA community (IMHO.)
