Who has experience flying, or flying in, smallplanes. We are about to take a 4 hour trip in a small plane,and the first question everyone asks, is "do you have a will?"
Sounds funny at first, but then you think there must be a reason they are asking. Can anyone tell me of their experiences of flying in small planes. We are flying in a 6 seater, single engine prop from CO to AR. I am ok with it, but my wife freaked out when i showed her a picture of the plane. |

Made it Forth and Back from Arkansas safely, and even got to watch my TROJANS hang 50 on the Little Pigs. It was a pretty great flight. We were delayed a few hours, as the cluds did not leave Denver as early as forecasted.
Turns out our pilot had been flying since he was 6, and solo since he was 17. I blew chunks on the way out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) , then quickly learned that Dramamine is my friend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) My 3 year old thought it was pretty funny. On the way back I sat shotgun, and everything was rosey. Even got to take control for a little while. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
