- I get that same experience sometimes, less now that earlier in my life.
- Once I get going, I discover it's great, but in the beginning, I float
- up to about 30' above the ground and I think that I'm too far up, that
- if I stop flying I'll hurt myself when I hit the ground. That feeling,
- too, disappears after a little while and I can do all kinds of maneuvers.
