Default NY bill would ban pilots under age of 17

How uninformed and misguided is that? The temptation is to use the words
"useless" and "politicians" in the same sentence, but that would be
redundant. My oldest son soloed at 14 (that was 19 years ago) and by the
time he was 17 and fully licensed had already learned things about
responsibility, judgment, decision-making, self-reliance, friendship,
etc. that have served him well and will continue to do so his entire
life, even if he never pilots another aircraft.
