Hey all,
With just recently receiving my Private license i have only been able to give a few rides.
It turns out so far my favorite passenger is my 10 year old brother. I thought he would be scared and nervous, but he wasn't the slightest bit. He loves it, i let him fly a little, or pretty much just hold the controls while i fly. He shows a real interest and it is exciting. Everyday he is free, he asks me if we can fly. He is starting to be interested in the weather and im trying to teach him how to listen to AWOS a little.
I had to explain to him the difference between a good and a bad landing and that a bad one sometimes won't be in the center and might float more etc.
The last time he went i had a little crosswind, but somehow managed to get a good landing in. He said "Nice landing, Ru" hah it was funny.
He will probably be my all time tag along until he learns, but i don't mind, it's fun to have someone so interested.
