At the rate at which fuel costs are increasing it's maybe not a bad thing.
In the space of less than 3 year, with what I would pay an hour lesson plus instructor now I can barely selh hire a 152.
Given that my wage hasn't increased, and going to the petrol station is a shocker, nevermind the avgas, if I was to start learning to fly all over again I'd probably give it a second thought now....
