Lee I have my own airplane and I earn 24k a year. These guys aren't even buying gas for their flying problems. They are just spending a day off outside enjoying something they find fun. Just cause it's rad doesn't mean it's expensive.

Too bad you think so. I think about the same level of commitment (mental, financial and athletic) is required in any really technical sport. Sailing, surfing, skiing, whitewater canoeing and climbing are such sports. I'm sixty years old and my body doesn't let me try the things I did when I was younger but I've managed to get good at all those things and try a whole lot more and by the way, nobody would have thought to call me a rich kid. Maybe the worldwide travel is out but these guys are good at their sport and probably could (maybe did) get sponsor help if they needed. Point is, even though the film left out North America, there are plenty of venues within a day or so drive from most population centers if you want to get into this sport. I'd say the biggest hurdle for most guys would not be finding the cash but rather finding the stones to give this sport a try.
