Air Daly

John Daly viewed his latest design from a plane (and of course gave it a huge thumbs up, oh and he was honored to be building a course in Canada along with other assorted nonsense).

Now, is it news that Daly viewed it from a plane because he doesn’t like to fly, or was this mentioned because someone thinks that only real visionaries fly over their courses before viewing them from the ground?

Yes, George Thomas did fly around the hills of Bel-Air, but that was in 1926 and he was trying to figure out if they could use the canyons for golf holes once the state had claimed the original land for UCLA.

Plus, George was flying his own plane. Which is pretty cool when you think about it.
