Good Kids

Jay's posts about his son and flying remind me
of the family of my hanger mate.

Saturday morning, my instructor and I were standing
outside the hanger talking. A car pulls up full
of teenagers. I recognize at least 2 of them as
my hanger mate's kids and I know from talking to
him that they have PPL's.

We watch as they pile out of the car, swarm over
the Piper Arrow with each of them doing a portion
of the preflight, push the plane out and mount
up. The tallest girl takes the left seat, yells
"clear prop" and they are off.

Good kids.
