A reluctance to take the controls

Now I'm hooked. I'll be tooling around central Indiana in a J-3 Cub

That's kind of the effect I'm looking for in people -- and we usually
get it!

What I don't understand is that you never felt the desire to try out
the controls when your wife was PIC. It would have seemed the perfect
opportunity to test the waters, and I (like, I believe most people)
would have jumped at the chance.


I'm with you Jay. But I may be different that most. Given the chance
to take the controls of almost any machine, I would jump at it. I have
zero desire to own or pilot a boat, but if I happened to be on one, and
was asked if I would like to try to drive it, I would not hesitate.
Same for just about anything from a backhoe to the QE2
