Spreading my wings

Since I'm traveling back and forth to San Antonio over the next few months, with at least one trip to last several weeks, I decided to see what there is available to rent in the area.

Surprisingly there are very few late model aircraft around on flight lines, and the area seems to have gone through a bit of a slump.(Based on reading a few posts here and there and the disappearance of a couple of schools)

In the end I ran across Wright Flyers. I stopped by on the last trip and filled out the mountain of required paperwork, and I'll schedule a check ride on the next visit.

Of note, they have several late model 172's, one with the G1000. Two Grumman Cougars (!), and pretty amazing modular flight deck simulator. If you’re in the area check them out.
