Thanks for the link! Lovely song indeed! This band reminds me of Eagles and Electric Light Orchestra at the same time:

I guess there are dozens of songs named "Learning To Fly". One of the most iconic is by Pink Floyd:

I immediately thought of the Pink Floyd song when I saw the tourney title.

However, I am impressed by the ELP song more. It gives me a feeling of real flight!

Now at the tourney Gull 3 is learning how to fly fast enough to catch Wasp 4.50 which took the lead!
