Filing Flight Plan
I have the flying bug. A friend arranged a flight for a group of us several years ago. I was taken up in a Globe Swift, I think. The pilot let me take the controls for a couple minutes. A couple barrel rolls later, I was ready to learn to fly.
I work full time. My wife has time and has expressed interest in learning. She likes the idea of being able to get a $100 breakfast or do some short weekend trips. She asked me what it takes. Having lurked here and surfed, I told her the requirements. She is interested.
We live 5 minutes from the FBO in McKinney, TX, KTKI, so the opportunity is there. The club that flies out of KTKI has several CFI's, planes for reasonable rates (two C-150's, two c-172's, and a PA-28R-180)
Any tips to make the discovery flight more enjoyable for her. The more she enjoys it, the more likely we get to fly.
