I fly all over the US, but mainly the west coast. I learned to fly in Europe and have flown in both Sweden and the UK. Sweden is pretty free, since it flies under the radar there. It's too small for the bureaucrats and they haven't gotten wind yet. UK a bit more restrictive, but there's a lot of GA history there. I like that both UK and Sweden have a lot of grass fields and pilots who are experienced in that. In the US it's all tarmac and they get really worried when you say you want to land on grass. It's like if you asked them to land on a carrier in a storm. But other than that flying in the US is fantastic. Europe should take note on how it's done.
I just stepped up to an even more capable plane, so the plan is to take the plane to Europe next year and do a little summer vacation and visit my old stomping grounds. I really look forward to that.
