Everyone at the FORUM ought to think of all we can to facilitate safe, zero-anxiety testing.
If you were closer, I'd take you up to the Lindsey Municipal Airport, west of Gainesville. There's an inactive runway where dedicated testing could be done, away from traffic and morons.
And Highway 82, which it sits astride, I've used for road testing without incident.
Good Barbecue too if you're into that. Or great German food in Muenster, further west.
