gain all,=0A=0AI just wanted to say "thanks" on behalf of Andrea.- I've s
ent=0Aher all of your comments and both of us appreciate it.- Many=0Aof t
he comments are right on...it's usually one thing to get=0Aa girl who is to
lerant of flying or building, but a whole other=0Athing when they're willin
g to help build, and actually follow=0Athrough with learning how to fly the
mselves.- Hopefully=0Ahaving more women in aviation will also keep boosti
ng the=0Aoverall participation by people in general, because the best=0Athi
ng we can do for longevity of the hobby and many more=0Aaspects of plane ow
nership is to add more new pilots to the=0Aworld.=0A=0AThanks again for all
the on and off list replies.- I've not=0Aanswered much on them myself, j
ust forwarded them off to her=0Ato bring a smile here and there.=0A=0ATo an
swer cjay's question, she finished in that leased Cherokee=0Athat I got thi
s summer.- So for this season, that plane=0Asaw two women get their certi
ficates, and now that we're=0Adone with it, we're still keeping it for a bi
t for them to=0Akeep current, and there's a local guy who's going to use it
=0Ato start his training too. So it's great to see people getting=0Ainto it
.- The Cherokee is a real dog compared to an RV, but=0Ait's making a grea
t trainer, and at $32/hr dry, I can't=0Abeat the price.- I figure $125/hr
to fly my RV-10 if I be=0Arealistic.=0A=0AThis winter/spring I'm going to
keep my eyes open for a=0Anice used RV-7A or 9A, if I can pick one up at a
real bargain,=0Aand have that for them to build time in.- Even with Andre
a=0Ahaving a private pilot certificate, adding her on to=0Athe RV-10 policy
will significantly increase the insurance=0Arate, and, truthfully, it's an
expensive enough plane that=0AI'm not going to turn a new pilot loose with
it. So a=0Anice little RV-7/9A would be something they could build=0Amore
hours in.- Plus, it never hurts to have another plane=0Ato have around to
play with.- I love flying side-by-sides. :)=0A=0ATim Olson - RV-10 N104C
