richard cohen Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Well today a very proud dad (me) took his lad for his first flying lesson at the club ! He paid his membership fees from his money box and went up on the dual control club trainer and practised his circuits. He is a massive warbird fan (like his dad) so as a treat i have given him a Precedent T180, (duly repainted in RAF colours) for his first trainer. The smile says it all !!!! I leant to fly on one, its a good size model for orientation, a tail dragger so he learns to use rudder and a proper floater. Fresh air, practical skills and socialising beat games consoles every time ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
