RE: Accomodation for the Deaf
OUTSTANDING!!! I know some guys that would have simply turned them away. It is great to see that you and your club is willing to do whatever it takes to get people flying. I hope this is not the last time you see them.
How was the flying by the way? Did one do better than the other? My dad and I started flying at about the same time. He flew a little when I was a kid but then stopped before I was old enough to give it a go. A few years ago I got him to give it a try again and I found that even though he had flown before, I picked it up quicker than him. Since then I have noticed that younger pilots seem to be able to get going easier than the older pilots. It seems that the playstation generation has better hand-eye coordination than the old guys.
Anyway you didn't mention a crash, so congratulations on a successful training day.
