Hey Ken,

You know the thought never occured to me to do as you suggest, I think I'll start doing that as I feel appropriate. I agree, that there are far too many flyers that are afraid of the maiden flight. Also, I lost a couple of planes when I first started since I insisted on handling the first flights by myself, your little exercise would have helped immensely. Any suggestions for the wind challenged flyer?

My comments thus far were made with the first time, or close to, pilot.
