OT: Experience in Small Planes, What can you tell me? Options

[TROJANMAN]

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.

Front seats are the best! I always try to put the passenger afraid of flying in front, and teach him/her to fly a bit. Sometimes though, even the calmest of persons get sick, due the motion of the aircraft. In eleven years I´ve had a single case where I wasn´t able to get the situation under control before the passenger started faxing. The guy was really keen to fly, but unfortunenately when he started feel sick, he felt he would lose face if he´d confess it to me. Made my job a lot more difficult, and the 15 min it took to get to the ground was too much by 15 seconds... After that my passenger briefing has emphasised early warning, and I haven´t had a problem in ten years.

P.s. How did your wife like it, if you don´t mind me asking?

My Wife was quite comfortable. She felt very reassured by the fact that our pilot delayed our departure b/c of the cloud cover. She'd do it again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
