A Future Passenger

This is one of my future passengers freaking out about me being her pilot:

scared-passenger

Oh wait.  We haven’t even left the ground, and she’s already feeling it. The door in front of her (to the left) is still wide open, and the passenger behind her hasn’t got his headset on yet.  See him dangling them behind her?

You gotta love having a support system like this around.

    Very nice shot! :) My dad was a pilot and had a Cessna 140, but I spent a lot of time in Piper Cubs and hanging out around several local airports. So I really appreciate reading about someone learning. It brings me back to the 1960’s….way before you were born!

    Oh my gosh, I remember what it was like when I was in the car when you first drove, I can only imagine what it will be like when you first fly…. yikes!!! This it truly the face I will have!

    PJ, I may not have been around in the 60s… but that plane was! Older planes are the most incredible of all. (Martin would be so proud to hear that!)

    Thanks for the encouragement, PJ and Christy. Katie and Michelle – well you two are just big pains. At least I won’t hear Michelle screaming in panic in the airplane – the engine is too loud to hear her. :)
