Don't bother, Jim. This "Mike" character is a particularly unpleasant one, even on his best day. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Father/son day at the airport
I asked the greybeards in the EAA chapter I belong to for their advice
on when to take my first born up. The advice was to wait until they could understand verbal instructions. One thing to keep in mind is that there should always be a "Parent in Command" on board when flying with little ones. That way, when the inevitable hissy-fit is thrown, there is a clear division of labor as to whom is doing what, and the pilot is free to fly the plane. Both of my kids have permanent scars on their knees from where Mary would reach back and give them a good pinch when they started fighting in the back seat while I was on short final... ;-) Now, when we take their friends flying, our kids are the ones hushing their friends whenever ATC talks. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Except that in a Champ or other tandem aircraft, the PIC is also the "pic". The reason to place the child in the front seat is so the "pic" can apply the appropriate hand upside the head if necessary while still maintaining situational awareness and flying the airplane. |

ROTFL! I suppose that kids flying in 2-place planes should be older/more mature, simply because you don't want/aren't able to deal with an in-flight melt down. I took a kid and his mom flying once, and -- as we smoothly lifted off the ground -- the kid started whimpering and crying into the intercom. I was very thankful that his mom was with him to soothe his fears, cuz it would have been a very difficult flight otherwise. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" "John Smith" wrote in message ...
