I'm only at 220 hrs flt time so I don't ask anyone to go.
If someone asks ,I'll ask them what kind of life insurance they have
, if that doesn't work I'll ask them if they get sea sick, like roller coasters, etc. I'll then tell them some of the stories about landing in cross winds , and a few other interesting experience's
.
If they still are interested then we go.
My biggest fear is someone panicing, grabbing the yoke,etc.
When they do say something about, " did you hear about that small plane that crashed the other day", I usually say "yeah, that lousy media ,why don't they print or broadcast all the car wrecks that happened the same day"
, probably 10 people died in cars in the state the same day that 1 pilot was killed.
I fly because I love it, I'm not out to convert everyone, but I'll share with anyone who's truly interested.
