You feel like you can't fly small airplanes?

I get to go fly a bug-smasher next week. I'm terribly excited.
We may not even ever get off the ground - there's a good possibility we'll just taxi around with the windows open and my arm hanging out.

Just don't flare 50 feet above the runway, its too long a drop.

I'm worried that I'll be so afraid of flaring too high that I'm going to drive the thing right into the ground!
