Preface: Anndie (A.J.) is 6 years old, and also the little girl of the blue balls story. She absolutely LOVES flying, and now has a "boyfriend" in the first grade named Kyle. Courtney, her mom, who is fine with flying but not aerobatics, sends me this yesterday afternoon:
I picked Anndie up from school, and asked her how her day went. She went on and on about Kyle, and then asked about you. I told her that you were doing good, that you were going to be in a wedding soon and that you are thinking about taken a lesson on how to fly upside down. She said "Acro flying mom?"
I didn't know what it was called so I said sure.....She said to me "Mom, how cool! Can you think what it would be like to be so high up in the air, where no one can hurt you and then all of the sudden you turn around, upside down, backwards, and then all over again? Mom, I love him, he makes me happy to know him." I said to her "Wouldn't you be scared that he might crash and never come home again?" she said "Nope, cause he knows what he's doing, (AJ gets sort of snotty at this point) AND what can hurt him up there mom? a stop light? a tree? maybe some guy who drank a lot at the bar? Mom you don't have danger when you fly when you know what to do and when your my Eddie."
Yo Chip, you got a parachute that will fit a six year old?
