I'm not a big fan of Fleet Week in the Bay Area and the Blue Angels doing their thing. Odd entertainment for me.

True, it wasn't a good comparison. I can see how flying a small plane would be fun - I always get a window seat on airliners because you just don't get many chances to take in a view like that. But small planes just don't strike me as practical and I don't like the noise when I'm on the ground, don't want to be making that noise myself.
