One of the things I tell them in the pre-flight briefing is to let me know if they get queasy and we stop right there and go back and land. My goals are for people to have a safe and a fun flight.

Was one of the shortest, fastest and landing approaches I ever performed. She was OK once we were on the ground. Flown over 100 YE and others..never had to clean up a mess. I always remember what my younger brother told me the first time I went flying with him...If you puke in my plane , you will have two messes to clean up!hicountry wrote: I always remember what my younger brother told me the first time I went flying with him...If you puke in my plane , you will have two messes to clean up!

Hey all, I was flying for a flight school, the boss told me to take these three people for a scienic flight. When I met the people I told them that the weather was bad and the wind was real strong and it was bumpie. They said they had to go anyway and the boss said I was fired if I didn't go. The fellow sitting next to me in the C172 was from sweden and didn't speak english and the two in the back were a married couple. Five min. out I get a tap on the shoulder from the guy in the back telling me his wife did't feel well and we needed to turn back. I did this gladly and the tower called the wind at around 40kts 45 deg. off the rwy. We had a closed rwy on the wind line and I requested it a pilot descression . On short final (400') the woman behind me projection vomited by leaning forward and hitting me square in the back of the head. Puck flew by both sides of my head and hit the instrument pannel soo now I have nice warn puck running down my neck and also the instruments, the plane is pitching like crazy in the wind and the guy next to me is starring at me like he is going to die, but can't speak a word of english. I just smiled at him and continued land and taxied in front of the hanger to block the wind so I could shut down. But Hell I didn't get fired, the lineboy cleaned the plane and I got a big fat FIVE DOLLAR BILL tip .
