General Aviation
This sub-reddit is for pilots, students, instructors and anyone else interested in old school GA flying. The focus here is on general aviation, specifically part 91, both the flying and the aircraft. We're the bugsmashin', tail draggin', and little airport lovin' folks always searching for that next $100 hamburger.
