Let’s get our pilots’ licenses and go for a fly! It’s general aviation!

Summary: General aviation is the broad subset of flying activity that enables everything from flight training and recreational flying to business travel and commercial sight-seeing operations and more.

Further Research: Go to your local airport, find the flight school, ask for a discovery flight, and enjoy an hour-long airplane orientation and flight.
