It was a whole new world to us. From the air, John and I saw the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, the Pacific Ocean, and what was to become our new hometown in California — all on our first cross-country after we got our licenses. We were hooked. From that time on, our lives were different. Our love affair with flying only became more intense over time.
Sky Kings: Mastering the Third Dimension
Key Takeaways:
- Flying, particularly the mastery of the third dimension, offers deep rewards but also brings unique societal challenges, including public fears and privacy concerns.
- The rapid proliferation of drones is democratizing access to the third dimension, creating an unprecedented surge in new "pilots" and presenting both opportunities and risks.
- While drones have the potential to introduce many new individuals to aviation, irresponsible use risks amplifying negative perceptions and damaging the broader aviation community's reputation.
- The existing aviation community should embrace and educate new drone pilots to foster a shared understanding of the joy and responsibility that comes with experiencing the third dimension.
