Actually you'll find that cars can be adapted for people without legs.

Learning to fly is a good thing too, respect to you for wanting to do something different.

Douglas Bader did an ok job of being a fighter pilot without any legs. There was a Russian pilot without any too if memory serves....

You only need one good arm, and a spanner, if a recent news story is to be believed.

There are a few schemes running around flying clubs that offer flying tuition to the disabled. They do amazing things, I've been around aviation and flying for years and the advances that make things possible boggle the mind.

You could learn to sail, they have sail mobility which is aimed for disabled people. You could sail around the world.
