My boy is almost 4.  I'm getting ready for reassignment but after the move, I hope I'll be able to take him flying.

My dad had me flying at about that age, now you have to go thru the trouble of explaining to him, no you can't solo till you are 16, yes I know you can fly,but it is the law.  I got that speech ALOT.

I was standing on the brakes and working the throttle as dad hand propped the engine at that age.

Scary stuff...........was always worried the plane would surge forward and take out dad when it started.
