Hobnobs Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 So today my son had his first flying lesson. Here is his final approach back to the airport. It was his airplane until about 20 feet before the instructor took over. The instructor (also mine) commented on his natural ability. One proud dad here.

RJ Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 You have to be proud! Fantastic. Congratulations for both, dad and son! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Harrell Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Nice! Your son has a soft touch on those controls. Before you know it he'll be greasing landings in a Boeing or Airbus. They sure do grow up fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuisong Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 He sure did great job of his approach and landing. And as Todd said he has a soft touch. A great asset for a pilot. I never forgot my instructor telling me "always treat an aeroplane like a lady, gently". I suspect he has been using your sim . You must be very proud. Please congratulate him for me.

Andrew 737 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 All I can say is '**** me' (I know that's naughty but I'm sorry, just emphasising...) i watched the vid very closely: 1.) your filming made it look a bit 'swayey' 2.) the lad had to deal with a good few bumps 3.) what can I say except BRILLIANT! Amazing, total respect to you both hobnobs, send me a PM please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
