Fly in Jacksonville while I'm visiting family

Post by srbell »

I'm a Private Pilot, although not current, and am visiting family in Jacksonville FL this week (I'm from WV). I would love to get in the air while I'm here just to see the area - and maybe even experience a light sport aircraft for the first time. Any suggestions for getting in the air an hour or so while I'm here? I could probably set up a flight with a cfi, but would be willing to go up with another sport or private pilot and share expenses too.

One of our most active forum members, Richard "designrs" has a beautiful Sport Cruiser on the rental flight line at Craig Field. I'm sure he'll chime in here shortly.
