AVIATION IS AN ADVENTURE IN
self-awareness-learning about who you
are and building realistic confidence. It
certainly was for me. Even now, decades
later, I recall vividly mixed feelings of
apprehension, excitement, and opportunity
when soloing a Waco UPF-7,
an open-cockpit World War II trainer,
which for me was a huge step up from the
Aeronca 7AC Champion in my presolo
training and my time in a 90-horsepower
PA-18 Super Cub that resulted in certification
as a private pilot. Aloft, tense but
marveling at the view and impressed by
the smoothness of the aircraft's big radial
engine, I was struck by the reality that
only I could return the biplane taildragger
safety to the ramp. No one would
magically arrive to save my bacon. I alone
needed to perform. Following what my
CFI had taught and dealing with each
element of the flight sequentially, I completed
the solo successfully. That basic

approach-using past knowledge and
developed skills to face new challenges in
a logical fashion-served me well through
the years, aloft and on the ground.
Self-awareness is one of many dimensions
of fulfillment learning to fly provides.
The fledgling aviator finds satisfaction
from learning how to control a vehicle that
initially seemed unruly. Flying challenges
an individual's hand-eye coordination in
ways as demanding-possibly even more
so-than other physical endeavors, thus
accomplishing precision maneuvers to
FAA standards produces a special feeling
of wellness. Developing the smooth stickhand
of a good pilot is an accomplishment
worth pursuing, yet there are additional,
potentially more profound benefits.
Achieving the realistic self-confidence that
a difficult task can be mastered is particularly
valuable for the psyche.
For those who crave clearing cognitive
hurtles, flying rewards pilots who
