It's one of the feelgood fringe benefits of flying, being able to share and introduce the joy of flight to others. Nice one Utah!
On a side note, whats going on with your seat ie the high back?

It called a patroller seat. I think the California Highway Patrol came up with those back when they had Maules. You'll see them once in a while. It's a sling and the only reason I've kept it is that it allows my back to be farther back. When your built like an ogre that helps.

Good stuff, Rob. Thanks for sharing.

His smile at the end is priceless. Nothing quite like the magic of flight reflected on a kid's face.

Not my work..... I just drove. The kid's grandpa is the guy in the front seat and it's his video. He's real handy with a camera.

Yup! Best thing about piloting. Took a friends kid up for a b-day intro to 'small' planes lastnight. Quite the reward to see the little grin and wide eyes:)Image
