Go to a local FBO or even flight schools and TALK to people.

There's no secret to networking - it's about striking up a conversation and finding a connection with someone.

Hope this helps!
Oh! Lol. And OBAP isn't? Wow, it amazes me how people can contradict themselves.

Pardon?
I'm not following your rational here. Please illustrate how I've contradicted myself and I will gladly explain why I said what I did. I will always qualify my statements.

Nothing discriminatory about OBAP, [...] - anyone can join. How exactly did Lori contradict herself? Gotta lotta nerve.
