Hi.

Please ignore the naysayers.

THE USA is a really big place. IT would be easier to ask by which city your nephew is coming. Does he have any friends to stay with, or a city/area/state he would like to see?

There are many fine places to learn to fly. But IF I told you which school to use in San Francisco and he was coming in to New York, it would be a wasted effort.

Oddly enough, some coastal cities in California are often fogged in during the summer (eg: Santa Barbara), while others are clear.

There are clever ways of reducing cost of a hotel by going to the less famous cities.

In his time off in the antarctic, he should be trying to do his written exam prep so that he is ahead of the game when he comes to the United States. There may even be a way for him to take the written exam and be way ahead even before he starts back.

I would also encourage him to read: STICK AND RUDDER by langweische.
