We had been talking about her getting some flying lessons and she was pretty interested, she asked a lot of questions about the airplane and how it worked. I did the usual this-is-how-it-works thing, and we took off. I got her over the highway that runs to her house and showed her the basics of how to keep a heading and airspeed, she wasn't great, but probably typical. After flying over her house, she was still having trouble figuring out why airspeed was important, so we climbed up 3,000, and I showed her what an approach to a stall was, and then a mild stall. Eyes got big... Then I gave it back to her and we headed back to the strip, she did much better with the headings and airspeeds. One of my better landings, taxied back and shut everything down. She announced with a big grin "Wow; I just had my first driving lesson and it wasn't even in a car!" It was a great day. -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Forgiving is tough. Being forgiven is wonderful.

Always enjoy introducing children for their first flight. They, for the most part, always enjoy it. Maybe not at first until they find out that everything is going to be ok. Then they lighten up and really get into flying. After the first one it is difficult to keep them out of the cockpit. Had a friend's young son and daughter that were not cut out for flight. Both talked big on the ground, but in the air they were devastated. Had to make highly modified circuit and get them on the ground quick. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama -----Original Message----- From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Richard Pike Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2017 8:59 PM Subject: Kolb-List: "Driving Lesson" --> Took my 13 year old granddaughter for a ride in the MKIII this morning.
