Just wanted to smile out loud!

Now, do I trust him enough to let him use the Cessna...:hairraise: or, do I dare think it... the Cherokee:dunno:
 
Make him buy his own Bill,..................He'll need a bigger allowance either way

I saw "18 y.o" in the post title and ignored it thinking it was a spam porn post. I guess not. Congrats, lol.
 
You are both to be commended!! If he is like me, years later he will feel a swelling of pride thinking about your contributions, mentoring.

Awesome! Hey, he's a pilot now, put him on the insurance and let him fly!!!
 
Congrats! Show him you have confidence in him. Toss him the keys! :yes:!
 
Now there's a father-son bonding event if I ever heard of one. Congrats to you both - and if he doesn't want the cherokee I'll be glad to look after it </shameless plug>

Congrats Dr. Bill.....my two girls are 5 and 8....I hope they will also follow in my footsteps some day.

Do you ever fly out of McGregor Exec? I grew up visiting my grandparents in McGregor and always dreamed of landing at that airport to visit them. Now I have my PPL and it's possible!!
 
That's got to feel good for you.
Great accomplishment at a young age for him.
